Today was spent with a special little boy....

There is great satisfaction in taking a young child into the woods, walking along deer trails, finding bones, nests, unusual mushrooms, fungus, rocks and wildflowers. There is almost always a stick in his hand and something else that is the days find! Standing still does not happen often but he's very patient with his auntie and the moment is caught! Great Uncle is in the background burning and clearing out the fallen limbs from winter past. I wonder if he has something for us to eat?
O, look, the tee pee made it another season. It was built with filbert branches and has been a snack stop for years! This boy knows that this tee pee was built just for him!
Ahhhh! A marshmallow roast break in April. What more could a little boy ask for!!
And, look!! A crows nest high up in the fir tree!! We think we can hear the squawking but it's so high we can't be sure.

To be continued.......it was a day full of good photo opportunities!
