Sunday hike in Kettle Moraine State Forest


Bobby had a great idea to take us hiking this Sunday after church. The choir was canceled so we had enough time and it was nice weather...sunny and not freezing. The fall colors were so nice and our kids have always a lot of energy so off we went.  I hiked ice age trail for a mile or two...this hike is about 1000 miles long, which is very cool. We learned that the ice age had left it's marks in this area of country which was very exciting for me, because that is similar to my area in Finland. We have a lot of big rocks in Finland that are left as memories from ice age and they had something similar here and also land formations that had been created from the sediments when ice was melting. The nature was beautiful and we got to walk trough some woods. Our kids wanted to stick their hands into dirt constantly...must be a boy thing...so I made them all wash their hands well when we returned so they could eat their cookies.
