Adventures in Nature

This is Jake in Shenandoah National Park this past weekend. We picked up a couple of hiking trail books and did a couple of hikes on Saturday. We're considering getting a season pass next year so we can do more hiking and camping. The season pass is 30 dollars, while a day pass is 15, so if we go more than two times it will be worth it. See the stick in Jake's hand? He started using a walking stick after we walked up the steepest, most difficult part of the trail. So, he just walked around with the stick while we walked along the easy, flat part of the trail. Haha.
We also made it to see Daine in Charlottesville. We ate at a restaurant called the Bistro and then went to a place for tea. I made everyone drink a pot of tea called "Golden Monkey". My favorite part was when a worker at the tea place walked into the room and shouted, "Who had the Golden Monkey?"
Saturday was a long day. I was so tired that I almost got into the wrong car after getting out at the gas station on the way back.
Well, hopefully the weather will be good this weekend, because I'm planning to go to Kings Dominion.
