One of our outings when I was on vacation a couple of weeks ago was a short hike at Borderland State Park in Easton, MA – going on one of the few great days weather-wise we’ve had this summer thus far. A great place to hike with small kids, and it was the first time testing my foot and ankle since spraining it in June – did quite well. Enjoy the pics…

Christmas Visit
Maybe they heard Santa had made his yearly visit to our house… we had some visitors Christmas morning.

First Hike Of The Season
I wanted to get these posted a couple of weeks ago, but better late than never. These are from our first warm weather outing to Ames Nowell State Park in Abington, MA.
Out In the Snow (Finally!)
Well we finally had a snowstorm that produced enough snow that we could get out this weekend for our first snowshoe hike. I bought our snowshoes in November, and of course now we’re in late February before we got to use them for the first time. We had one good storm in December, but the next few days were warm, so there was nothing by that weekend.
It was a good outing (despite some technical difficulties with the sled we were pulling our three year old son on). Here are a couple of pictures I took of the local scenery.

Getting Out
I know I’ve focused many of the recent posts on the more technical computer related arena. I thought for this one, I was overdue to focus (at least visually) on some of the great outdoor environment. Autumn is my favorite season and as some recent business found me on a couple of road trips to Albany, NY, I took the opportunity to bring along the camera to see what kind of shots I could grab. I was eager to try some of the features of my digital camera that I have learned about in the last few weeks. As it also so happens, I took the family, on the weekend between each of these road trips, to a day hike to Walden Pond in Concord, MA. I think these shots are among some of the better I have taken. Thumbnails are below. All photos were taken with my Kodak EasyShare DX7590. (The cabin at Walden Pond is the replica of the cabin Henry David Thoreau lived in for two years on Walden Pond.)
