On Monday after we hiked the Preserve, we decided that we weren't done exploring for the day. So on we drove to Hamilton Pool. Ages ago there was a huge cave, but the dome fell and left a natural pool formation. The water gets trapped in the pool, and only refreshes itself with rain. It was a gorgeous sight, and the kids could not resist getting in it. The water was so clear! So clear in fact that the water mocassin was easy to spot! No worries though, it slid into it's hide out and I made the boys play closer to the shore. I have been on many memorial hikes, but this place was beautiful. My pictures do not do it justice.
This is what it looked like on the way to the pool:
And this is what we saw when we came into the clearing:
Thanks Kelli for sharing these picture of your hikes with the kids. They look like they enjoy the less populated areas too. I know that I do...to many people are draining. But, where are the pictures of Lucy hiking...or was she enjoying the ride? For as long as she can get away with it!
