We are fans of hikes with water and it’s a big bonus when there are critters to be found!
So today’s hike was perfect. Henry Coe State Park has a few different entrances, this is Hunting Hallow. It’s just a short drive from Gilroy and a total escape. All you can hear are birds chirping and frogs croaking and the occasional wild turkey gobbling. .

Invisibly, where the casual observer would say there is no life, it lies deep in...burrows and tubes and passageways. -the quote behind my kids (@montereybayaquarium )
The more we are in nature the more we marvel at it, the more we want to study it. This small tank at the aquarium is one of our favorites...it helps us remember to look closely. There is always something to see. .

Do you have a place that fills your soul?
For me, it’s the redwoods. The smell of the damp earth and bay laurel, the sound of water dripping from the pine needles. Sign me up!
The Forest of Nisene Marks is one of favorite places to visit the redwoods without a long curvy drive to get there. .

We found snow in the Bay Area!
There has been a dusting of snow on the mountains surrounding our valley for the last couple of days so today we decided to go find it! We took a drive up to Henry Coe State Park and oh buddy, did we find snow. Ok so it was only a couple of inches but we chucked innumerable snowballs and built a snowman and had the best time! .

One of our goals for this year is to read for 30 minutes everyday. Yesterday was so lovely we took our reading outside...adding to our #1000hoursoutside goal at the same time! Also, we all sit down to read together and it’s the most peaceful, quiet time in my whole day...I love it so much!! .

My biggest tip to get outside more!? Start by doing things you would normally do inside and just take it outside. Reading a book, read outside. Checking email or instagramming, do it outside. Eating a meal, take it outside. I’m convinced that even those short little moments of outside time can make a positive impact on our mood and mental health. I just wish I could take my sink outside to do dishes...that’s my least favorite chore.
Today, we had to adult and do some chores so we pulled the car out into the driveway and enjoyed some sunshine and fresh air...even though it was very cold for our California bodies..50*F 😂

Do you take the time to notice the small things around you? Tiny mushrooms, mosses, lichens and slime molds. They may seem insignificant in the grand scheme of the forest but they are as detailed and beautiful as if they were the main attraction. I think it’s the small things in life that really matter too. Life can be beautiful and detailed and still be quiet and small.
Just some thoughts rolling around my head. Happy Saturday! .
