A Tiny Hike

Today we are going on a tiny little hike. This was an old home back in the day and when the owners died, they donated it to the regional district for a park. All that's left here is the foundation of the house.

It looks like they have some fruit trees back there...

And over here is quite a meadow. Apparently they kept a few sheep and cows when they lived here.

There's even a little back-40 area where there is a creek... which is dangerous... cause the banks could collapse.

Huh... these look like hazelnut bushes/trees... will have to come back here in the fall.

And more fruit trees...

This could be a good place for back alley fruit collecting!

The creek is down there somewhere...

Ah, here we go... must be a good place for doggies to splash around.

Well, this is nice... they have mowed a path through the meadow. No soggy boots for this little bear!

OMG... it's a wild columbine!!! Cool... it's the first one I've seen down here on the island...

So pretty...

I think this is a great place to walk dogs but...

Not much to hold the interest of a little bear... still... it's a hike!

Which means I get my post-hike brownie treat! I like this new routine!!
