We were up at 6:30 thanks to Summer, dressed, fed, ready to go by 7:45. We packed snacks, water, trail mix, covered ourselves in sunscreen and took off. The drive took almost an hour. This was a new trail. It had a lot of gravel unfortunately, I prefer hiking on dirt.
Summer was in a decent mood when we arrived.
Who am I kidding, she kept saying "I am hot" and "I am hungry" - hot because when we started it was sunny and the path was all uphill, not steep but just enough to be a pain, and hungry because she saw me make the trail mix earlier in the morning and wanted some.
Along the trail we saw hummingbirds and chipmunks. I got pictures of both but nothing to brag about.
I think Summer has been watching too much Dora, or Diego, because at one point she pulled out her sunglasses, which I think were meant to be binoculars, and started to look around for the way to go.
Little rough on the face if you ask me ...
We found a cute log, wait cute? Nice looking, cool colorful ... whatever, a log to take a picture and a video on. Check out the video, of me taking pictures of Summer :o)
Then we had enough, we found a spot to picnic. It was only around 10:10 AM but we ate our sandwich, drank our water, and Summer munched on homemade trail mix.
When I was putting up the snacks I saw my blue hat and asked Summer to wear it, she did, and I took pictures.
Overall it was a good trip, we are starting to work ourselves up to it again, it is going to take time but we have plenty of it.
