Stephenson Family Ties

Then something Tookish woke up inside him,

and he wished to go and see the great mountains,

and hear the pine-trees and waterfall, and explore

the caves, and wear a sword instead of a walking stick.

Ahh...Kanarra Creek Hike. Never grows old. Always fulfills. Its been 2 yrs since I've hiked its merandering trails of water and stone.. I love showing it to those I love. It was a glorious Saturday..and it felt like most of So. Utah agreed. It was packed with hikers. It was hard to share...for I have been spoiled...usually we're practically alone when I hike it.

THese Tookish hikers of ours were impressive in their hiking stamina!! Impressive I say!!! I'd hike with them any day...any day that the hike includes water. Water is invigorating for both young and old.
