Hiking with Simon | Lost Pond Trail
A few days ago, I blogged about how Simon and I went on his first “real” hike. We went on Gunpowders Lost Pond Trail and it was just the best time! We had so much fun, that I wanted to share a few of the images from our two hour, .92 mile hike!
Hiking with Simon | Lost Pond Trail
I love his sense of adventure!
I also love that Simon found this cool tree and asked that I take a picture of it for his “adventure book”! Here is Simon’s creatively directed tree photo:
I also let Simon “lead” the hike by showing him about the trail markers. He was very keen on “keeping mommy safe” and making sure we stayed on the blue trail!
This tree was so cool!

And of course- here is our iPhone hiking selfie:
With fall being so busy, I’m so glad that Simon and I were able to steal away for a few hours and spend the day outside. Hopefully he will brave the colder weather with me and still hike over the coming months!
