PS. Happy Birthday Mom:)

Today was awesome because Sara made all the arrangements for our day... all I had to was drive.  She wanted to go hiking (I know... I thought it was a little strange myself... but honestly I had nothing to do with it).  We drove out to Mt. Charleston and hiked three miles (round trip) with a 1,000 ft elevation gain.  We followed a steep series of switch backs which lead us to our beautiful destination, Marry Jane Falls.  I tell everyone I feed Maggie rocks because she is so solid, but try hauling 30lbs of sleeping rocks up a mountain.  It was great for her because SHE WOKE UP right when we arrived... ahh perfect... what did I miss?  Maggie bounced and hummed... the whole way down.  At the bottom we ate lunch (courtesy of Sara) and drove home.  Thanks Sara:)

  1. It was such a fun outing, I'm glad we did it. And you forgot to mention you carrying Maggie PLUS the camera on the way down (that camera is not light!).

  3. Now that sounds like a great way to spend your Monday. And I am impressed you hiked with Maggie SLEEPING on your back. I think that is harder in some ways. Hiking sounds fun. I think we need to get out and do it again. Fun that Sara planned the whole thing :) I bet lunch was yummy too.
