The equinox arrived and brought with it the end of summer just after 10:40 this morning. At that time we were driving into Massachusetts to visit another of the reservations cared for by The Trustees of Reservations (still a terrible name). It was a really great place and we had an excellent hike. The first of fall/autumn (pretty much to the minute!)

Here is my E5N1-friendly glossary:
hazardous = dangerous
exercise caution = take care
exercise sound judgment = make good choices
fun = FUN!
In fact, he did manage to injure himself, but not in a life-threatening way and scare his parents, but not in a injury-causing way, so 'safe' may be a bit of stretch, but we did all have FUN!
(sorry for all the parentheses in this post)
