I love Independence Day. It is my second favorite holiday after Thanksgiving.
Wesley looking very patriotic and mugging for the camera.
With the absolute craziness in the woods (I know, I work in recreation), I wondered if we would find a place without a ton of people. We pulled into the XP Corral trailhead and were the only car there. We hiked the historic Pony Express Trail east for about two miles, then hiked it back. We saw only one other person and the trailhead was still empty when we got back to the car. It was awesome!
Last year, Wesley was about the same height as sugar pine cone. (Independence Day 2019)
This year he was picking them up and hauling them around. Still, no small cone.
We've been trying to get Wesley to drink more water. If we give him a sippy cup of water he will get a big mouthful and then open his mouth and let it spill out. He loved (!!) Gil's Camelbak though. Hmmm... I think I might be hanging it up in the kitchen and letting him drink out of it like a gerbil to keep him hydrated.
It was a beautiful day and a perfect hike.
