Winter Walk

As much as I am a lover of having four seasons, I have always wished winter could be much shorter than the others. Every year my New Hampshire husband reminds me about layers and I try to focus on how pretty snow is and that there is more indoor time for reading. Still, I miss being outside, and this year I want to make more of an effort to brave the elements.


On a December Saturday morning (mercifully mild) we joined the "Friends of the Blue Hills Reservation" for a Winter walk.


Nana was here for a visit and helped us find things on the scavenger hunt list, such as an "interesting rock".


Sophia loved finding the bear paws that told us which way to go on the trail, and a fallen tree that acted like a "see-saw".


She also loved the freedom to run far ahead without having to think about cars. 


Until she wore her legs out and welcomed her father's shoulders.
