Back Home!
Apr. 19th, 2009 04:17 pmToday we returned from the mountains! It was a weekend of hiking.
Daddy and I hiked for four hours yesterday along a ridge, down into a valley with a creek, and back up onto and down the ridge. It was strenous, it was tiring, but I managed to have a nice conversation with my father outside of Davidson/Panthers seasons, and that is always an accomplishment.
(Plus we ate lunch at the top of a waterfall on the creek, and aside from the orange trying to escape to the swimming hole below, it was very wonderful. We must return there with the rest of the family when it is actually warm enough to swim at the bottom.)
Today, we did some more hiking, along- I kid y'all not- Darkside Cliffs.
Wow.
That name really inspires confidence.
The view from the top was excellent, and the hike itself was pretty easy, but I really don't want the names of my trails to include either "Darkside" or "Cliffs".
