Date of Adventure: Sat. 9 July 2011
Type of Adventure: Hike
Place of Adventure: PWMA
Length of Adventure, miles: 2.5
Length of Adventure, hours: 1.5
Weather: Partly cloudy, temps in the sun about 80, temps in the shaded woods about 70.
Companion(s): Colyn
Other Adventurers Encountered: None
Notes of Interest: 1. The trail was fairly wet. Most of the foliage was wet, too. There must have been a pretty good storm recently, because all the run off streams were flowing, and I could see where the water had run down the trail. 2. Saw 2 red newts hiding under a leaf. 3. Heard a Blue Jay. I almost never see or hear Blue Jays while I'm hiking.

2011 Adventure II
Date of Adventure: 2 July 2011
Type of Adventure: Canoe Paddle
Place of Adventure: Benson Landing
Length of Adventure, miles: maybe 1? We spent more time just floating and watching the Osprey than actually paddling.
Length of Adventure, hours: approximately 2.5
Weather: Beautiful! Temps in upper 70s, sunny, light breeze.
Companions: Mom
Other Adventurers Encountered: Canoers, kayakers, boaters
Notes of Interest: 1. We saw a pair of Osprey on a nest. They were on platform 1. We may have drifted too close to them accidentally. I took about 120 pictures, and maybe 4 came out really nicely. 2. We heard a bird we saw, but could not identify. Even Mom had never heard the bird call before.

Notes of Interest: I took it easy because it's been so long since we've hiked. We just did the short loop, which is mostly flat. Colyn recalled pretty well. It was so peaceful and calm being back out in the woods.
