"Are you Crazy?" Is what Cassie might have asked me if she and we knew what we were getting into. We wanted to spend our Saturday doing something fun. We had a few ideas and somehow we decided to go on a hike. Jer suggested Mt Si and I aksed him to look it up online to see how easy it was. He got directions and we were on our way. The girls love to be outside and they like hiking. We just did not realize how grueling this hike is. It was beautiful, pretty much all up hill, lots of stairs. Not that these are bad things, just challenging when you have a 10 month old, that doesn't like her carrier, a 3 year old who wants to be carried and a five year old that is whinny. To get to the top is 4 miles but I think we are lucky if we made it to one before turning back. Abby screamed almost the entire way back. Yikes! It made me realize how out of shape I am, my legs were jello about half way back. I am sure Jer was thinking he was going to have to somehow drag me back. Don't get me wrong, we had a really good time, it was just challenging. We decided that next hike we will make sure it is family friendly, and Jer and I will conquer mt si on our own.
