Today is the first day of the first contest on the wellness blog so I thought we better get out a do something. We went for a hike up battle creek canyon. Annie is finally big enough (probably not old enough) for the kelty back pack. It seemed like we were hiking forever, but when I looked at the trail on google maps, I found that we only went one mile, total. Oh well. At one point I was carrying both kids so that was 66 extra lbs (jackson 36, annie 15, pack 15) so I got a better workout.
Before Annie fell asleep in the pack, I kept taking pictures of her to check on her so there are a lot of pictures that look like this. The pack did come with a mirror, but I don’t know where it is.
Jackson found this big dead vine which he dragged a long way up the trail, dropped, found on the way back down and dragged a long way down the trail. There are endless possibilities for pretending with a big dead vine. That’s probably why it took forever to hike one mile.
Fall is my favorite time to hike: nice weather, dry trails, and fall colors.
