What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreFor Addie, nature means flying or driving someplace cool with her family. It's the family time that she loves when she's hiking and playing the alphabet game, or finding a salamander in the Great Smokey Mountains, collecting shells on the beach, or checking to see what the clouds look like. Addie also rescued sea turtles recently in Central America and helped them reach the ocean successfully!
A tiger and a lion but we have only seen them at the zoo, so far!
For outdoor activities, Addie absolutely loves Field hockey and summer swimming. One of her favorite outdoor hiking places is a watering hole in Shenandoah National Park and on summer nights she and her sisters can be found catching fireflies.
