Hiking.

We joined my Sister and Matt for a hike on Sunday.  The hike wasn't too bad, it was trying to get Skyler to follow instructions and listen that was a challenge.  Like trying to herd a cat!

Doggy came along too!

Twinky little waterfall.

Our 4 year old.  Now complete with new hiking boots!

Rescuing a potato bug with Matt.

Mountain goodness!

Green!

The mobile chicane slowing everyone down before the bridge.

Skyler conned Matt into carrying him like a sack of potatoes!

Coming back down.  Karen and Matt split off and hiked up to the top.

His new boots are waterproof.  He tested them out quite a few times as you can see the sheen on them from the stream.

This granite was oozing water.

Big dip!

Big drink1

Blue sky to the South...

Not so much headed West!

Getting darker...

Looking Southwest toward our house, raining!
