Flowers Trail Hike (Pingree Park)

Took a short hike this weekend.  Next time we won't have anything we need to be back home for because we didn't tire the kids out.  They were still picking at each other later in the day.  They definitely needed to work harder.  

View of one of the beaver ponds.   We didn't get to see any beavers though.

Lunch spot:

We passed some raspberry bushes right in the middle of the trail on the way out that had luscious looking berries.  I only had one...thought the animals in the woods might appreciate them more than I.

The flowers were out in abundance but beginning the decline to fall.
