Time for a Hike

So, what are Saturday's for? Chores? Housework? Family time? Relaxing? All of the above?

We decided to take a nice 90 minute hike up Captain Jack's Trail from Gold Camp road this afternoon, taking advantage of the sunny, warm fall day. We have had temperatures in the 60's and 70's this week, 10-20 degrees above normal for this time of year. We know the snow will come soon enough, and the chores will be waiting for us when we get home, but we decided today was a good day to get out as a family and get some exercise. (By the way, for our friends in California, the trailhead for this is just a ten minute drive from our house! ) We are blessed to be so close to outdoor getaways like this. Photo by Anna.
