PhotoHunters: Dirty

N was 19 months old when this was taken. We were hiking on a rainy day and he insisted that he was not going to ride in the backpack. What fun he had stomping in _all_ the puddles - most of them at least twice. He showed great promise as a hiker. This summer at 3 3/4 he climbed a small mountain.

That's a great shot. Brings back memories of hiking with my daughter when she was a child.

Loved your entry for dirty! I remember walking in all the puddles coming home from grade school. . . probably was the beginning of my walking jaunts--always find something to do along the way of my wanderings! Great photo.

Come see mine.
