Yesterday, the girls and I went hiking at Placerita Canyon National State Park, near Newhall. We wanted to take the Waterfall Trail, but opted for the shorter Ecology, Botany, and Heritage Trails instead. Altogether, are three hikes are just a little over a mile. They are very easy and child friendly, as well as cool and shady. Unfortunately, we went too late in the spring and the creek is already dried up. It was still a beautiful hike, and we really had a lot of fun. We did not, however, make it through the hike without mishap. Haley climbed into a tree and was immediately covered with ants. I quickly brushed them all off and she was not bitten but she was pretty frightened. Still, we had such a good time that the girls and I decided we would come back soon to try the Waterfall Hike!
