Trail Fun

After the nice meal at the Creamery it would have been fun to hang out a bit more, but it was time to hit the trail. It was definitely a great 16 mile ride.

You see some fun things along the way, an eagle flew overhead and we saw this snapping turtle. Check out his armored shell - don't mess with this one.

These are touch me nots and they were growin' all over. I didn't know what they were but Todd gave us a lesson.

You gently squeeze the long pods and they explode, letting out their seeds. It's really fun to play with and it's amazing how sensitive the pods are, they even explode if the wind blows. Plants have evolved such ingenious ways to disperse their seeds.
