Easter Hike

Sunday, April 16, 2017

“Any patch of sunlight in a wood will show you something about the sun which you could never get from reading books on astronomy. These pure and spontaneous pleasures are ‘patches of Godlight’ in the woods of our experience.”  ― C.S. Lewis


For Easter this year we ended up staying home and taking it easy. I worked on Good Friday, (Ethan had off) and he and I both work tomorrow. Thankfully today was an absolutely beautiful day and we made sure to enjoy it!


The morning started off with waffles made by me, some Easter basket hunting (with help from our dog!) and then Zoey and I read outside until after lunch, we decided to trek our way to a new trail for some hiking.


It was 2.5 miles and it was lots of hills and steps going UP!! Thankfully it wasn't too hot out and we were able to cool off here and there while in the shade of the trees. There was SO MUCH to discover on this hike. Lots of marshes and bogs to check out and the hike itself was around a lake.


We didn't see the beaver that did this but it was apparent that it had been there recently as the wood was still wet!




I'm going to just share photos here for now...






















Once home, I quickly got started in on dinner. Salads, turkey (vegetarian), mashed red potatoes and fresh green beans never sounded so good!! Now I'm completely wiped out!! Felt so very good though to get some exercise and spend the day enjoying our world, together.


Happy Easter!
