Hiker Fam

Most of you have already heard the Camelbak story, but here it is again. G got a running hydration pack (this is like a little backpack with a water bag in it and a straw/tube that comes out and rests on your chest, so you always have your water). The girls were so excited about it that they wore it around the house and totally over hydrated, with all it's natural consequences.

G challenged them go go on 10 hikes/bike rides over the summer with the reward that he would get them each their own hydration packs. Well, two weeks later 3 very motivated girls had earned their reward. The packs came on Friday, and Saturday we were hiking on the Ridgeline trail!

This trail, less than a half an hour from our home is a dense canopy of pine trees and the forest floor is covered with fern. I love hearing the birds calling. Actually, this is R's favorite place to run, and G and R have even run a 20 k race on these trails.
