This afternoon Brenna and I went to Rockwood Conservation Area, a peculiar little park full of glacial potholes. Its limestone cliffs are nowhere near as magnificent or wild as the granite precipice Marian and I explored in Algonquin Park last week, but beautiful in their own way. Rockwood is barely a 15 minute drive from where I live. In many ways I do not miss owning a car, but I do long for a time when I can make excursions like this anytime I want.

Adiantum pedatum, maidenhair fern

Brenna and I swam in the lake and explored the potholes. Then she swam some more while I spent a few minutes with Hairy Potter and the Goblet of Fire, which I started reading for the first time last night. I have already finished books 2 and 3 this month.
