Valentine's Day Hike

Because I skimped and didn't post anything from last weekend, this weekend shall have two posts. One shall be the proper Dad hike tomorrow and for now, I shall share some photos from a little Taylor MountainValentine's Day hike I took with some friends today.

The old standby. The cows were out in full force last weekend, which is the best. That is the only explanation I will offer for the plethora of cow pictures. Overall the hike took about two hours, and I'd estimate was four miles or so.

Mt. St. Helena

So we took a brief hiatus two weekends ago because Disneyland beckoned and one does not simply ignore the siren call of Disneyland. But last weekend we hiked Mt. St. Helena in Robert Louis Stevenson State Park. It's glorious- amazing views all the way up. Although at the top I think the wind was going about 50mph, so that was an adventure. It was 10.11 miles up and down and took about three hours.

 

You can't see it, but he's basically blowing right over. Any minute now, probably.

Rock climbers!

 

I don't know... I figured I don't put too many of myself, so here's one.
