Tyke Hike #66 - Hartland
Heat and humidity may make hiking a little less enjoyable than normal, but they certainty don't stop tyke hikers. Eleven individuals trekked through a paved portion of the Hartland Segment on this sultry evening.
We investigated various plants bordering the Bark River. When we found a lonely sunflower, we had to name her. Since we settles on Queen Sun we decided to use rhubarb leaves to fan the queen.
We also found a plant that one of the hikers said was jewelweed. With a slight touch, the seed pod of this plant explodes, entertaining the tykes for sure.
We decided to cool down with a story at the natural play area. We read Sneezy the Snowman, a story about a snowman struggling to find the best temperature. Then, as is normal with our hikes, we explored and played in nature.
