New Year's Day Hike...ValleyView

Thinking of trying to hike at least three day a week. And Ella is going with me...we both need to be whipped into shape. We might move really slow at first but I know we will get in out groove eventually. What a better day to start than New Year's Day. Cassie and her crew went with me. Ella stayed back because we didn't think she could hang with Maddie. probably a good choice.

Could not have been a more beautiful day! Perfect hiking weather.

We started down in the woods but ended up in the big field because it was a lot wet and even more muddy.

Good thing because we found this little island with a new bridge and viewing area. Really nice.

there were good trees for climbing.

We found some apples still on the top of a tree.

Not everyone can wear a hat on top of their hoodie. She says she wears it that way because it keeps her hoodie up.

Ellis....'now I know what it feels like to be a pencil.'

A little more tree climbing.

Ellis didn't need to worry about wet feet...he just plowed through and didn't care.

We found apiece of metal for Michael. Alaire has requested a heart by Uncle Michael. Ellis used it for a writing stick but gave up on that pretty quick and just used his fingers.
