August weather rocks!  Dry air, cooler nights --- it's all good!  After being in the car for far too long today with two young children (an hour is all it takes for toys, books or 1/2 eaten sandwiches to start flyin' in our car), the whole family put on our hikers and went for a long walk on a path through the woods.  We stopped to pick wildflowers, checked out a clear, rocky stream and even found some ripe, wild blackberries!  How lucky we were to be able to discover and gobble them up before the birds did!

Sometimes the simple things in life, like a walk in the woods, are all you need to get in touch with each other, nature and yourself!

Goodnight all!
