A Stroll on the Greenway

We met up with Jen, Aidan and Ella for a nature walk through the Greenway.

Patrick and Finnegan loved exploring the trail with their friends.  


The kids stopped every few seconds to explore something new; a stick, a rock, a stream or a biker passing by.  Everything was fascinating to them and I loved watching them explore.


The highlight of our adventure was an hour long visit to a tree stump - that's right, a tree stump!  The kids found sticks (which they used as batons), they raced their cars and trucks on top of the stump and took turns standing on top of the stump.



As Jen and I watched them explore, we realized that with all the toys the kids have, they had a better time and adventure in the outdoors than they will ever have in a playroom!

After 1.5 hours, we managed to walk .5 mile (roundtrip), I wonder if there is a record for the slowest pace ever traveled?!?
