Bristlecone Loop

One of the fun things about being the Ward Camp Director is I get to do all the fun things the girls do. Like prepare for the overnight hike with our 4th year girls. Today's hike my ward was in charge of drivers and a Priesthood leader so Mike got to go. This loop is 6 miles. It's the first 6 mile hike I've ever been on. It was a good hike.

We've decided we need to do more things like hiking that we enjoy. We stopped once we had kids since we haven't figured out how to hike with them. This morning we got a babysitter and it worked. It was a wonderful realization that you can get a sitter in the morning and instead of having a night out we just have a morning out. A hike is cheaper and healthier than dinner and a movie and really how many times can you do that.
