Today we hiked to the top of Sawnee Mountain.
Because at some point in my mind I decided a challenging hike up a MOUNTAIN
on the HOTTEST day of the year so far, would be fun.
Seriously?
We were melting by the time we got to the top.
But we sat in the shade and relaxed for a while.
Then we ate our yummy lunches of pbj sandwiches, pickles, cheese sticks, grapes and mini carrots.
And drank LOTS of water.
Talked, joked, took photos, and before we knew it...
we were having a really good time.
The hike down the mountain was much easier,
and we took a quick break by the gold mine entrance to enjoy the cool air emerging,
but we were still very glad we had more water bottles waiting for us!
We are so lucky to live near such an amazing place.
