On April 15th, after making a trip to the post office to drop off our taxes, we went for a hike on the Billy Goat Trail (the Maryland side of Great Falls). This is a tough, rocky trail -- but the kids did great. There were a few understandable complaints (we clearly did not bring along enough water), but all in all a super time. We saw lots of wildlife (turtles, snakes, heron, and a lizard). Last time we did this hike Ben fell and scraped up his chin and nose. Unfortunately he didn't escape injuries this time -- he ran smack dab into a tree limb and scraped under his left eye (ouch -- thankfully it did not hit the eyeball). Check out the last photo for a more detailed look at the injury:)
