Luke wanted to explore the back meadow and the apple orchard. He found a bucket and asked me to prepare a water bottle for him. I followed him with my camera and enjoyed his wide-eyed wonder at every flower and insect. He followed the sheep trails and wandered into the orchard, making sure I was close behind him as he is "scared of forests." I'm not surprised, with so many fairy-tales and movies (Lord of the Rings) having scary things happen in the woods. Luke tasted the tart little green apples and found mint to bring home for tea. After a crash-boom-bang thunderstorm this morning, the sun was out and the ground squishy. We managed to keep our ankles dry.
