Grace in small things, June 10, 2016
- A late-spring after-dinner hike to Picnic Rock (off Fox Creek Trail)...it's been so muddy this spring...last time we went was in the snow but now the trails are like we remember them...Picnic Rock is like we remember it...it's fantastic...
- A deer on the trail coming back not too far from us, pausing to finish his or her bite of grass, looking us straight in the eyes before bounding off into the bushes...
- Zo and I chanting together as we went around the corners, "Hey bear! Hey moose! Hey bear! Hey moose!" to make sure they knew we were coming (we forgot our bear bells). I also had fun telling the kids about hiking with my Uncle David as a kid and how he would say, "Pack train coming through! Clear the trail please!"
- Picking just a few flowers off the trail where no one would miss them...but they made such sweet little wildflower bouquets...
- The Beach (AKA Burgess Creek in front of the Sheraton this morning with friends...
- Preceeded by Hawaiian coffee, chatting with one of my favorite people here while our kids played...it was delicious...
Happy weekend!
XOXO
