a beautiful day for a winter hike

snow cone!

sumac in the snow

jack frost met jack pine

the branches on this e-tree look funny

...like the killer bunny!!!

 

the haunted forest (no mom... it's not really haunted)

except this tree... it's cursed

it's coming to get you...

the curve that all the cross-country skiers missed

shhh... i think i hear something....

...must have been the strange animals hiding in the woods!

 

something must have just flown by...

...a chickadee that had a crash landing!

all this hiking is very tiring!

keeping up with the skiers (or at least trying not to get run over by them!)

entering the enchanted forest... some people claim they even see deer here (sure rubby, we believe you!)

 

sylvia attempts to capture the ever elusive rubby...

mommy, mommy, there's a bird on your hand!

a bird on the head is worth a bushel... of laughs!

an electric sunset

heading home with lots of pictures and stories to tell...

...and that was trail 26 of stoney swamp conservation area
