Last weekend was the first time in over 4 months that I've been IN the mountains instead of shorter hikes close to home. It felt so good to be in the old forest with all the sights, sounds and smells of the higher mountain trails. Skookum Flats is one of the easier trails in the mountains, a good place to try out the injured heel. My husband has hiked with me on trails close to home and this was his introduction to the fun our daughter and I have shared for 6 years. He enjoyed it very much and is ready for more....we both have to work up slowly to the harder trails. (It was so much easier to recover when we were younger....) I know that some people laugh at "tree huggers", but don't knock it till you try it. It feels so good....especially when you hug a big one. They have been around for a very long time and really do make you feel better!! Thanks so much for stopping by for a hike!!!!
