BLOGGER TEMPLATES AND TWITTER BACKGROUNDS »

Summer is fun, but also almost over...

And because of that fact, Steve and I are making the most of our weekends before he starts working crazy hours until March.

So with that said, we went up to McCall to do some backpacking and biking!
We hiked up to Snowslide lake and camped out...


Short hike in but fairly steep


Me trying to filter water but then decided its better to wave it around like nunchucks


Preparing our dinner for the night, one we became too familiar with in Europe... noodles and red sauce with sardines. Yum!


Pretty cool counter top, i could get use to


Our view during dinner, and our deer friend


Next day on the bikes around McCall, we went exploring on some new trails on the backside of brundage


But after a few good loops we went off in a different direction... only to discover a dead end. The trail was really new...


McCall was beautiful, biking was a blast. It's always a treat to get out in nature... break a sweat, enjoy new scenery, and be away from the normal pace of life.

Tomorrow we are off to Wallowa Lake in OR.

I'm so jealous...I miss the mountains!! Glad you guys had fun. Sardines? That's sick, Snay. I never thought you of all people would actually enjoy a can of sardines.
Have fun in Oregon! Hopefully you'll be receiving a phone call or text with news that you're a grandma! :o)

You guys have the most fabulous adventures! :) And yeah, the sardines thing is a bit gross...but to each her own. :) I prefer mac and cheese with hotdogs for dinner, mostly because that's what the kiddos will eat! LOL!

HAve a good one!
