Trying to entertain two active little girls for a few hours every Saturday morning while D gets a little more sleep from his late night working has M coming up some creative plans outside. Last week we went hiking at a Natural Area just outside of Loveland. At seven in the morning the air was still chilly even though the sun was shining brightly. We were the first ones in the parking lot, although by the time we left there were about 15 cars, most of them runners with their dogs.
Crossing a little ravine...we had to be quiet because the grumpy old troll was still asleep according to C.
The area is called the Devil's Backbone due to the rock formations around the area. It was a pretty hike with a gradual climb to the top. With all the snow on the ground and the chill in the air, I started getting cold before we reached the top.
We made it the half mile to the top and the overlook.
Since it was only 9 am when we got back to the car, we went to the mall and walked for another hour before heading home and waking up D.
