chambers creek

what did i say about getting out and about? this weekend i set out to find a spot i hadn't been back to in over 6 years! we cautiosly steped around muddy paths, took an overgrown trail strait down, and voilà! The creek was cool and private for our party of three, wish we would have thought about swimsuits, a reason to go back!

vimala identified the berries we passed - edible and not. i love having friends with foraging hobbies. she also found a pretty feather that i later identified (with the help of this awesome feather atlas) as a northern flicker. also noteworthy, the sad sad rock sara spotted. seriously have you seen a rock in such agony before?! i took it home, bet it will make a good gift...
