Hiking with Daddy

Eric took the boys on a hiking adventure this weekend. The weather was gorgeous and the boys are always in the mood to go and hike. Plus Eric needed to scout out a trip for a youth group camping trip that is happening this summer. The guys decided to go and try the Robe Canyon trail. It is one that Eric has done before but the boys haven't. Eric figured if a four year old could do it then it would be just about perfect for whiny teens. Anyway, off they went on the trip.


The plan was to have lunch during the hike. However Eric has been helping build a dock this week and has been in the sun a lot. He is quite burnt to a crisp. So that meant it was up to the boys to shoulder the burden of food and drink. Years ago we got Andrew and Eric camel-packs and they have room for some food in them. Andrew was able to wear Eric's and Zane was thrilled with Andrew's. I think that the boys peed on every bush during the hike due to all the water they drank. Boys will be boys I suppose.

I think Eric could get used to them carrying the packs though!
