The Great Outdoors

We will very soon be losing our cool weather here as we move towards springtime, so the Phillips clan have been busy hiking while the weather is still pleasant.

Paul really loves being in the great outdoors but we have to keep pretty close tabs on him because most of the plants here are trying to kill him. With the help of a toddler leash we were able to keep him safely on designated hiking trails.

Paul was absolutely fascinated by running water. The creek at Madera Canyon provided him with endless entertainment and temptation. He learned that stepping into the creek was extremely cold and not at all what he had anticipated.

I introduced this fun game to Paul and he liked it so much we couldn't convince him it was time to leave.
