Recent hikes

We went on two great hikes this week. The first (Tuesday) was called "Difficult Trail" (although not that difficult). It followed Difficult Creek, and started on Difficult Lane (not making this up).





JJ, Bryan, Russ and Xavier, my hiking buddies!


Lots of pretty flowers on this trail...



This morning Bryan and I went up the Ute again--38 minutes! Next time will be even quicker. I'm glad I brought my camera, because we saw a rainbow at the top!

Can you see the rainbow?





Clearly, I wasn't the photographer here...just imagine my eyes open, and the picture is complete:) (I <3 Ithaca!)
