Hiking

Saturday was a day of hiking.  While the last bit of a cold lingers on, we decided to head up to Superstition Mountain for some hiking, just to get out of the house.  My granddaughter loves the outdoors, but was feeling under the weather and thought she'd just 'ride along'.  But once there, she was out and climbing around with the rest of us.  The dogs loved it! and it wore them out.  Sadie slept in, and is still snoozing this morning. :) 

We got further along the Treasure Loop trail than ever before; my daughter called it quits and we headed back, but it was a good hike, over a mile into the hike, up about 500 feet, before we turned it around. I think we hiked for about 3 hours.  There were plenty of people out there hiking, and with the dogs it was slower going, as we tend to move over and stop to let people pass us without the dogs being too pesky.  The sunshine was warm and there was a crisp breeze to keep us cool.
