Little Mashel Falls

Sunday, while Daddy and the boys watched the Seahawks game, Kayda, Auntie Kina and I went on a short hike.  It was only about 4 miles, 3 of which were on a boring, wide, flat, gravel path.  Once we got up into the forest it got much better.  Kayda had a great time climbing around on some of the logs that had fallen over the trail.  We talked about a lot of the different plants we saw and decided that we should get a book about the plants in this area.  There were a few berries we wanted to know if they were edible.  We managed to find some licorice fern, I don't remember where it was but we found it in a scavenger hunt once.  It's root is supposed to taste like licorice!  It was a great little hike.  We only went to the middle falls and we're definitely going to go back with the whole family so we can explore the other two.
