Vacation Update #3 (non-bear version)

Although, the bear was a significant part of our vacation... we did do other things.  We spent a great amount of time outdoors hiking, picnicking and just enjoying nature.

Post-bear (P.B.) we went on a hike to Moro rock.  Although Chris couldn't take Josh too far, Zach and I persevered and kept going.  I was pretty impressed by how far Zach wanted to go.  Hiking with kids is a whole other ball of wax. 
See how tightly Chris is gripping Zach

Another highlight was visiting the Crystal Cave in the park.  Chris was a trooper and hiked back up the 1/2 mile trail (3 stories straight up) with Josh on his back.  It was pretty cool... you can never see too many stalactites and stalagmites in your life. 
I love Joshy's smile in this one!
 

Overall, we had a great time and hope to return when the boys are older and we can be even more adventurous... and can run on their own if we see a bear.  :)
