A Labor Day Weekend Hike

“There there is nothing like a wilderness journey for rekindling the fires of life. Simplicity is part of it. Cutting the cackle. Transportation reduced to leg – or arm – power, eating irons to one spoon. Such simplicity, together with sweat and silence, amplify the rhythms of any long journey, especially through unknown, untattered territory. And in the end such a journey can restore an understanding of how insignificant you are. ~ C. Fletcher

Lake Malone State Park, Kentucky


The weather was fantastic this past Labor Day weekend. It was perfect hiking weather. We actually did this hike twice! The first time was with Grandpa David. The second time we did it with Papa and Gigi.




The trail lead down to the river along some rocky cliffs.

The rocks were beautiful.







The trail went along side the lake too.




We took a rest and watched the boats zoom by while people water tubed and skied by us. The breeze off the water felt fantastic.




We have good little hikers.

This particular hike was almost 2 miles.
