National Trails Day


Today is National Trails Day and the trails up the street from us are officially open. Dan, Noah, Japhy and I went up to do a little hiking on them today. It was a beautiful day and we had so much fun. Japhy loves it up there because there are hawks, other birds, and rabbits to chase. Sometimes there are even coyotes!






















Here is a picture of the view from near the top.

















And here is a picture from a few days ago when Noah tried on my shoes!!! He thought that was hilarious. I am LOVING being home with him this summer! He is at such a fun age and he will say almost anything (so I really have to watch my mouth).

that's funny - i never knew they had a trail opening day. i guess i just thought they were always open. you learn new things every day.

Trails are always open. It's just that these bike trails are new...they just finished them a month ago and had their official opening today since it's National Trails Day. Usually on National Trails Day, people work on cleaning up/maintaining trails or just go out and appreciate them. But you're right, once trails are constructed, they are usually always open unless there is some kind of problem with one.
