At the Quail Botanical Gardens they have a kid-friendly percussion section which Jaedyn really enjoys. A cool drum, a very fun xylophone and some hanging bamboo which Jaedyn turned into a trumpet.
This little praying mantis came for a visit as well.....
The view from the top of Battle Mountain. This is looking westward toward Lake Hodges which is literally drying up by the second.

This was the first official hike with Ashlyn in the pack. She did great and as usual, even though she was completely exhausted she fought through the sleepiness and managed to stay awake the entire time (unlike her brother.....he fell asleep in the pack instantly every time) . Now that Ashlyn is in the backpack Jaedyn gets to be an official hiker. He did great although it took us about double the time to get up the mountain as it usually does!
