Summer is Back!

It's not quite officially summer, I still have to grade a bunch of finals Tuesday, but the weekends are mine again! We  didn't do much Saturday besides pack. (More on that development later.) Today though we decided to reenergize our hiking habit and headed out to Codfish Falls Trail. I'm thinking now I shoulda taken some pictures of the drive because the last 3 miles were an intense, downhill, rutted, rocky, dirty, switch-back-filled road.The trail was kinda cool. It was a single-track that ran along a fork of the American River. Lola is a hiking machine; her brother is getting there. He wasn't as reluctant as he's been in the past and he made it a heckva lot further than I expected. But his legs are short and his stamina/patience/interest is the same as most four-year olds: not very great. But we had some fun. Pics, of course:
