King of the Hill (or MOUNTAIN) and the little Prince

These two hikers are top notch - 10 miles of mountain terrain last Saturday! We started out on a shortened version of our yearly hike (toddler and all - didn't want to push too hard), but we kind of miscalculated the distance... We hiked ALL DAY - up hill, down hill, over rocks and boulders....

What an adventure. And poor John packed the grandbaby the whole way! And the grandbaby was such a trooper. True outdoorsmen...

Nana held up well too, till the very end - when my brakes gave out on the downhill. But I really didn't suffer any consequences from the fall - my knees just got a bit wobbly. I have had a bit of a consequence this week though - didn't know I had all those muscles in my calves....

I wouldn't have missed it - the views from the top were breathtaking. And what a wonderful way to spend time with family.
