An Afternoon at Briones

  Sunday afternoon we packed some snacks and headed out to Briones Regional Park. I envisioned us going on a hike. We ended up not walking far at all, but climbing lots of trees, exploring up hillsides, and finding some interesting things along the way. The important part is that we were outdoors together, enjoying the beauty of it all. The short lived time of year, where the hills are so lush and green just after some rain. 
These kids brought their insect nets, but Easton mostly used his as a gun. Go figure. 
Our walk consisted of going from one climbing tree to next and then climbing and pretending for long periods of time before scouting out the next tree and starting all over. 

Easton called to me, "Look Mama, I'm a sloth!" A proud sloth, at that. Look at his face!
Gabriela, the Sloth 
Then, we heard a cow and the kids decided we should follow the sound to see if we could spot her. It took a little bit, but we found this baby cow. 
And only because we left where we were to find the cow. We spotted this little maze. The kids had so much fun walked through it to get to the middle.
