yoga all day.
don't let the sun fool you. it's still march. the mornings and nights are cold.
gordon and the littlest Chiara chewing on grass. boys are weird.
while others in our group set out for an overnight backpacking hike, we decided to hang out with the family and hike the trail at chimney rock. the littlest Chiara wanted to hike along side gordon. his dad kept telling him that gordon's legs are much longer than his and that he might not be able to keep up. well that eight year old sure showed us. he's quite the hiker!
dropping down in to the maze district.
that mister of mine...always willing to help.
i love this photo. like i said, that littlest Chiara hiked his little heart out. and this was only the half way point!
twist and turns and tall rocks standing alone. it's all very confusing when you're down in it.
i guess that's why they call it the maze.
pretty rocks covered the wash floor.
spotted: pictographs! this one is called harvest scene.
we didn't realize how close we were to the chocolate drops.
the maze sure mixes you up.
if you drop in you gotta climb out.
celebrating their hard work with knuckles and fireworks.
this is the oldest Chiara. she was scared of heights. we had to straddle this rock to get to the other side of mountain. she chose to climb over it. perhaps a bit more dangerous but gordon was there to help.
the kids and i kept measuring chimney rock with our figures hoping that the space between them would grow which meant we were getting closer to the cars.
hiking 8 miles is no easy task...especially with kids. but everyone did a great job and there were only two melt downs (none of which were mine, surprisingly enough).
