"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." ~John Muir
Daddy and Fiona pointing at....nature? |
The Fehrman Family spent lots of time hiking together this weekend. Fiona loved spending time in our backpack, oohing and aahing as soon as she realized that height gives her a brand new perspective.
On Saturday, Fiona and I hiked the Al Buehler Trail in Duke Forest. Even after running this trail hundreds of times, walking it with a 24-pound friend on my back was a great workout!
On Sunday, the three of us hiked about 4-5 miles on the Dunnegan Trial at Eno River State Park. Wildlife was definitely the highlight of this trip.
Fiona wasn't sure that the baby toad we briefly captured was actually friendly. |
However, the box turtle was quite intriguing. |
After finishing our afternoon adventure in the 90 degree southern heat, we cooled off with a our first family trip to Locopops. Fiona enjoyed a few licks of her strawberry mango pop, but as usual, our social butterfly preferred to spend her time chatting with the other little kids that filled this Durham hot spot.
It won't be long until our little gal is hiking on her own!
