Day 333 - 3 October 2020

This girl has started waking up earlier each day... not sure she enjoys it :)















on the way to our first big VA hike!



"a real life scarecrow?!"





ended up hiking eight miles today... boy were we beat! 
Saw almost nobody on the majority of our hike.... but then of course at the scenic view overlook, we couldn't even get close enough to safely take a photo. 
But we know we did it, and took some pretty shots along the way!




our hikes have varied a lot over the years, but one thing that doesn't change is that whoever is in the backpack goes to sleep :)




















had to discuss "what is moss"


both big kids hiked the whole way themselves!
This was the most help Charlie had... I felt like a plow horse, but it helped her stay moving :)





the ferns were so beautiful!






best photo of the view I could get





true hiker girl... covered in mud from nose to toe


we did it!








Reagan loves to pretend with her bottle... 
Usually she sits there and pretends to drink it and then laughs and laughs :)
