“For children, nature comes in many forms. A newborn calf; a pet that lives and dies; a worn path through the woods; a fort nested in stinging nettles; a damp, mysterious edge of a vacant lot- whatever shape nature takes, it offers each child an older, larger world… nature does not steal time; it amplifies it.” -Richard Louv

just some phone snapshots from our week, which included lots of fall fun in the outdoors.  from leaf piles, to bike riding, to hiking, to picnicking at the park, to exploring the local dam (which just might be put to work this week with hurricane sandy on it's way and a week of rain forcasted along with her).  hope you're enjoying your week too!
