Naked Nature

We went on a nature walk behind one of the neighborhood grocery stores.  I was blown away at how beautiful it is back there.

We saw a snake in the first few minutes of our walk (that was so cool!):

Blake was excited that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles live at the trail:

Super slug crossing:

We came across an orchard on the trail and found out that Andrew W. Piper had once owned the land:

I had this magical feeling that I was supposed to find this right at that moment.  I saw it as divine inspiration until...

...my son came running out of the orchard saying, "Mom, there is a naked man in the orchard."  Ewwww.  Creep!  Okay kids, time to turn around and go home.  He took the wind out of my sails.  It is still a beautiful place to be, but I won't go there without my own Mr. Andrew Piper.
