Pepper and I had a few hikes planned for our latest
vacation. Dori stayed home to work and take care of things at home, but the
other three kids joined us and were pretty willing to try all the activities we
had planned with very little argument.
The first hike was not too long (about 2 miles) and included
a great walking path, a couple scenic overlooks, over 220 steps down to the
waters edge, a rustic campground and a very nice covered picnic area. The
weather was perfect and we ended with a picnic lunch that everyone was looking
forward to. (It is amazing how great a PB&J sandwich tastes at a picnic
table after a walk). It was a great day.
The second hike was a little longer (about 5 miles) and did
not include so many amenities. (The path was more difficult with roots and
prickers very common along the way.) To make that trip a bit more fun, we had a
contest for the best picture found along the way. Everyone got 3 votes to
choose the order of winners. We
decided the prizes together:
1st prize- any ‘reasonable wish’
2nd prize- choose where everyone sleeps that
night
3rd prize- Had to do no dishes that night
4th prize- pick the movie/game that night
5th prize- a hug from everyone else
