I love vacation.

We had a great time, Wicket was a good camp dog on his first camping trip. Toad and Maddy had a blast.

Caves, Giant trees and bears... Oh my! *Just kidding, we saw no bears

Finally back from the wilderness... Last camping trip of the summer and it was AMAZING. We camped in King's Canyon, kayaked Lake Hume, explored the Sequoia forest and went into the Crystal caverns. I need a vacation from our vacation though. So tired but happy.

The view from 8500+ feet, compliments of four wheel drive and a forest service road near Buck Rock that led to the fire look out.

We hiked/backpacked the devils slide. It was awesome but my legs hurt for like 3 days. I need to get new hiking boots.

Rim of the world

More hiking... I'm hoping the winter is mild so we can get more hiking and kayaking in.... We stayed at the cutest cabin in Big Bear.

The view is great from the rim.
