I've been wanting to take some field trips on the weekend, out into the gorgeous California country. I thought it would be good for the whole family to spend more time in natural surroundings, away from concrete. Bob pounced on the idea and so we found ourselves hiking at
Castle Rock State Park on Saturday. It's in the Santa Cruz mountains.
Syl said she hoped that Zachy's hiking techniques were NOT a metaphor for his path in life, as mostly he chose the harder route. Here, he could have gone directly on the path over the lowest point on the fallen branch, but NO, he chose the highest point to climb over!
The rock formations were awesme, volcanic. Zachy was ecstatic the whole trip, taking to the rock-climbing adventure like a little mountain goat. He expended so much energy, he took a three hour nap, as did his parents. Not so the sleep-resisting little brother, Dexie, who spent the afternoon playing with me.
