I'm trying to give my son an appreciation for the outdoors that he can mold into his own as he grows. I want to keep him excited for nature, and fresh air as he grows up before the lure of technology takes over. I don't want to oppose technology for its a great asset in our lives, but how you keep it balanced is the more significant question. We go on little "adventures" or hikes whenever we can. I keep them short and try to excite him wherever I can. This little adventure was a mile and a half walk (he rides on my shoulders most the time) through a Filbert Orchard to the river. It was his idea to have a leaf fight!
