This last Saturday we decided to join David and Suzie for a little hike. We wanted to get out and enjoy the nice weather and maybe start a tan. I was unaware of David's famous trails that he always finds that turn out to be trails that don't actually exist or that lead to nothing. And thats exactly what our hike turned out to be. We first stopped at a place where David thought there was a trail. It turned out to be an empty, dried out riverbed. A quarter mile later we turned around because it just took us to the base of some cliffs. He then drove to another spot where he thought that the trail would take us to the edge of Snow Canyon. We all knew that wasn't going to happen but entertained the idea anyway. We kept walking and walking. There was nothing to see except trees and rocks. It was fun to be together though and we laughed about our pointless hike. The funny thing is yesterday David took his motorbike back to this same trail and said it was ten miles to Snow Canyon. We are glad we turned around when we did. We might have ended up camping out all night.

This is where we stopped hiking and stopped to take a break.

Can you spot the lizard? David spent some time trying to catch it.

Suzie was talking and not paying attention and stepped on a cactus...ouch! I didn't think they were that hard to miss.

Hey I'm diggin the spinny photo cube. nice.
you guys are so good to get out and exercise. i'm doing a 3 mile race at the end of the month and i'm quite scared that i'm going to fall over and die. i know, compared to your marathons...3 miles is nothing but i don't have the best endurance. i need longer legs.
