Well…I figured that it was time that I wrote something.  I guess one could say that I have been experiencing bloggers’s block.  I simply haven’t been motivated to write anything.  Today I am forcing myself to get back in the groove (if there was ever a groove).

Last week Luke and I went on a 11-12 mile hike and spent the night at Packwood Lake.  We had a wonderful time being out in the woods enjoying the wonders of creation and spending time with 7 other great guys.  I will list some of the highlights to our hike below.  They are not listed in any particular order in case you were wondering.

>Bathroom time in an outhouse

>Jumping off a bridge into breath taking cold water

>Amazing views of the lake and Mount Rainier

>Mice getting into my pack, eating my bagel and leaving a nice mess for me to pick up

>Spending time with my brother and his sons

>Hanging with my son Luke -he is one amazing 7 year old.  We had a lot of fun together

>Luke almost jumping off the bridge…I’m glad he didn’t

>Catching crawdads – it took me back to my  early camping days

Never been hiking?  I highly recommend it! As good as it would be to do it alone…it is even better when you can share it with others.  I would love to hear of a fun experience that you have recently shared with someone else.
