"take a hike," they said

Well, actually no one did. But it has become a tradition to go on a hike before my birthday. Last year we went to the Ledges on a very snowy day. This year I couldn't have asked for a better day for my pre-birthday hike! It was such a balmy 60+ degrees and sunshiny and at some point, I had to slip my arms out of my long-sleeved shirt and wore the sleeves dangling like an extra pair of arms. 

Burchfield Park--new to me--was an easy eight-mile loop and scenic all the way through.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUUUUU
What a gorgeous day for a hike. I had to do some mental imagining about the shirt. Was it a button up shirt? How did it stay on your body otherwise? Must be a button up shirt. Why am I obsessing over this?
I hope you have a wonderful day - the colours in your photo are gorgeous.

We picked this spot for Scout's memorial because of the way he'd always come bounding up to greet me around that bend. And while I d...
