the park

So, I've decided to jump on the show and tell bandwagon this week. I teach elementary school, yet haven't had my kids do show and tell for two years! I think I need to bring it back.

I live very close to a park that has over 20 miles of hiking trails. I'm hoping the rain holds off until tomorrow evening so that I can take a few friends on my favorite trail. Here are some pics I took on the trail almost exactly a year ago!

And a picture of a Lupine, one of my favorite wild flowers.

    Wow, I love your trail! I live close to some great trails but none with waterfalls. Man I'm jealous! Definitely worthy of show and tell.
