My husband and I just did another Labor Day Weekend hiking extravaganza. Four parks in three days (plus two short bonus hikes at waysides on our way home), over 10 miles of hiking, climbing the equivalent of about 131 flights of stairs, and taking about umpty billion photos. I’ll be rolling out the blog posts about each of these hikes in the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned.
When we started this hiking adventure on July 4, 2018, it seemed very theoretical that we might actually visit and hike all 68 of Minnesota’s state parks. We just went to our 28th park and have hiked 80.4 miles (out of 197 miles total). But the hikes themselves haven’t been nearly as important as the company we’ve kept. I can’t imagine having a better hiking partner than my husband. He encourages me along the way, and makes me laugh with his witty observations. After 35 years we still enjoy each other’s company.
When I put that photo on this post, I had planned to write something about reflections, but instead ended up writing reflections on our hikes together. This is my lazy way of making the photo fit the post so I don’t have to pick out another one. There you have it!
I’ll probably reflect on deleting this post in the morning.
