Hikes Around Town

 

Andy and I (and Elizabeth once, too!) have been trying to schedule hikes around our small town this fall. We have only made it to two parks thus far, but we definitely plan to visit more. 

On the hike that just Andy and I went on, we hiked about 4 miles. The path was flat all of the way which made it so easy to negotiate. The second hike that Andy and I went on with Elizabeth, it was a hilly pretty poorly maintained trail with lots of very narrow pathways and a lot of fallen trees across the trail. 


Max laying down in the water on a hike. He is laying in a stream and facing the camera panting.
Max loves the water - not too much - but just enough that he can lay down in it and cool off. 



Another pic of Maxi laying down in the same stream, but this time I caught him licking his lips in this pic so his mouth is open and his tongue is touching the top right hand side of his mouth.

Maxi still cooling off in the water - no longer panting, but just chillin' looking around.



A big mushroom on the forest floor.

A picture of a pine forest on both the left and right of the trail. Max is also in the picture just standing there waiting for the walk to commence.

A picture of the trail ahead of us. It is empty. There are tall pine trees on both the left and right of the trail.

A picture of a river with a good amount of water flowing down it. There are embankments on both sides of the water with hills and trees.

Maxi laying down in this river up to his neck in water.

Love this kiddo so much.
