What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreLenny loves to take hikes and always stops along the way to observe moss on a tree or see what kind of bugs or animals might be living in a hollowed out log. He never passes up a good stick or a cool rock. Just yesterday he came across a garter snake in the flower bed and bravely/cautiously/carefully picked it up by its tail and observed its awesomeness before releasing it back into the garden. There isn’t much he doesn’t love about nature and the great outdoors.
When asked, his response was, “lions and all big cats, and snakes and lizards.” Especially his pet leopard gecko, Leonardo and his dogs Echo, Hank and Sid. We watch a different animal video each night before bed and the only one he has ever said he doesn’t like were rats!
Lenny loves to dig in the dirt for worms and other insects. In late summer we hunt for cicada shells and can usually fill a cup in one evening of hunting. He just got a fishing pole for his birthday and that is quickly becoming a favorite hobby. Hiking, bike rides, baseball, golf and just about anything else that can keep him outdoors for hours on end!
