Ladybugs!

We were almost finished with our hike,
When my tired attention did spike.
These large piles of bugs,
All clustered and snug.
This sneak peak at nature I like.

Cumberland Cross

I like how this tune comes across,
It's got slow parts, and then it's got sauce.
The rhythms are fun,
With a quarter note run.
Give a listen to Cumberland Cross.

Prairie Dance

Here is a musical glance,
At a piece we're playing, in advance.
I like it a lot,
Fun rhythms it's got.
Give a listen to this, Prairie Dance.

Cascades

 While hiking I wonder if I could,
See the Cascade Range real good.
It was foggy down low,
But look, it has snow.
We saw Jefferson, Sisters and Hood. (And St. Helens...)

ICCA West Quarterfinals!

Tonight you now know where I'll be.
It's the event that inspired Glee!
We'll go watch my son,
(I hope his group won.)
I'm just glad it's him and not me.

Leftovers

On weekends when it's time to eat,
Choosing what to eat's quite the feat.
We'll open the fridge
And look for a smidge.
Or better yet, just grab a treat.

Confluence

This trail ends where 2 rivers meet.
The hike is a nice, easy feat.
If you're in a canoe,
This campground's for you.
Hiking outdoors is hard to beat.
