Mt. Nemo Conservation Area

I'm ready to go...don't forget Riley! Matthew loves going to get Riley's leash when we go outside. He's also sporting his new spring coat, sunglasses, and sneakers!

Today we finished off the Halton Region Conservation Areas with a visit to Mt. Nemo. The weather has been beautiful and it was great to get outside, and out of Mississauga for the morning. I've been anxious to pick up "park hoping" where we left off last fall and take lots of day trips.
Matthew loves to get in the pack on Dad's back. As soon as Chad got it out of the trunk he started to giggle and got very excited!

The view - note the turkey vulture flying about...there were oodles of them!

Smith family at the look-off. It was a great view, but this was the only area with a rock wall at the edge of the cliff, so we were very careful when walking "near" the edge. Note that the shadow makes my belly look gigantic! Though I'm certainly proudly showing, this picture makes me look 9 months pregnant instead of 5!
We let Matthew out of the pack for the last bit of the walk and he insisted on being the one to hold Riley's leash.
