spring lies waiting, beneath the frozen ground

it's march, and yet every day i wake up, the temperature is in the single digits! we did have one day last week that miraculously was in the 50s, and dylan and i took full advantage by hiking through the woods and the bike park.
putting the backpackto good use. dylan LOVES riding up high.
the cool facade, designed by jim, that kids enjoy riding through. he's so crafty!

a wet hike--good thing i had my boots:)

the park is full of neat decks, bridges, and log piles for riding.

i am so eager to be outdoors more!
