Monday Hike

We had our Sunday hike today since yesterday the weather was pretty cruddy. We headed off to Groton once again, and had a picnic at our favorite spot after having a play date in Marshfield. On our way to the hiking trail Jake spotted a moose, so we sat and watched him for a good half hour before he went on his way and we went on ours.
The boys, Emily and I hiked up silver ledge. Its a half mile to the top which wasn't bad except most of the trail is a steep incline. The boys were troopers and made it to the top with no complaints .The bugs were horrible so we didn't stay up there long before coming back down.
