Hello again! Today I found a little trail that runs through this really neat forest of cedar trees. You can see me here on top of the sign that marks the beginning. It is called the “Cedar Lake Loop” and is just off the Leelanau Trail past the bathroom. I saw many bikers stop off, park their bikes, and walk the trail to take a break from the sun. This is a huge forest! I have never seen such cool looking trees before… they are kind of magical.

Below, you'll see a photo of three friends I met here at DeYoung today.  My friend Emma is the one with the dark pigtails.  She had another little girl with her named Ruby, as well as her pet monkey.  (The monkey and I both got squeezed a lot… it was fun!)  Emma and Ruby were exploring the field when I arrived.  I could barely see their little heads, even from the top of the sign!  Emma's mom says they come here a lot to play.

Now I'm off to investigate the cedar forest.  You should come visit, too!  If you find any oak trees out here, please email me and let me know.  I'd like to check for acorn production!
