Mothers Day, Enjoying God’s Earth

Since we had visited the day before, we had no problem finding the place. This time we hiked into the bottom end.

Climbing back down proved tricky, it was more slippery even than the day before.

It was at this point that Lucas STOPPED having fun. And therefore so did we. This is at the bottom of the steep hike back up to the cars.

BUT we made it.

Well, on our way out we stopped at the warm spring. And Krysta slipped.

It was dry enough down there. We stopped for lunch and a little dip.

Lucas got too cold immediately. Which Krysta was just fine with.

I realized at this point that I forgot my swim suit. So I wore this stuff. Karl and the girls went into the little cave.

Mirah stayed near the stream.

We had chips, and PB and J sandwiches for lunch. And then on the road we went.
