75F Today = Cunningham Falls Hike


The week started off cold and snowy, but by Saturday the temp had risen to 75F.  It was beautiful.  So we packed up the family and headed to Cunningham Falls State Park for a nice hike, and to enjoy the mountain lake (which we figured was way to cold to swim in) scenery.
Here we are at the trailhead- what a beautiful family:


Mamma and her boys:


Oden caught 4 or 5 salamanders during the hike.  Here is one of them:And then Oden let it go....Oden was such a big boy, navigating the rocks and roots all by himself:Mamma enjoying getting Shai out into nature:
Oden loved climbing on the rocks:Daddy and Oden playing in the creek at the foot of the Falls
Who is the happiest woman in the world?
Daddy and his boy at the Falls:

75F and the lake was still frozen.  Definitely too cold for swimming...

And last, but not least, a video of Oden throwing rocks in the creek.
