Since yesterday was a warm day, we chose to go take a hike somewhere we hadn't been before. Unfortunately, I let Rudi chose the location. He chose Gilsland Farm, which still had a couple feet of snow, and it was freezing rain. He took up up a hill that had the girls sinking in to mid-thigh, and when we got up the hill, we just decided to go back. The trail was icy. It was foggy. A true New England March day. Next time I pick where we're going!
The Audubon Society had a nice visitor's center and the kids enjoyed looking at all the stuff in there, as well as in the children's discovery room. All in all, it was just a classic outing with Rudi, the kind of borderline debacle that life would be very boring without.

Avery was about the only shot of color on this drab day! |

A lot wet, but only a tad grumpy. Mostly she was grumpy because Rudi insisted that she put up her hood. |
