Labor Day Hike

We were supposed to be at a soccer tournament for Lyla’s team over Labor Day, but lots of rain on Saturday caused the tournament to get canceled.  Sunday, however, was a beautiful day!!   Since we had an unexpected free day, we decided to take the girls and Cayenne up to Ravens Rock for a hike.  Mark and I had hiked it this past January for our anniversary, but it’s a challenging hike, and we weren’t sure the girls would be able to do it.  They did a really good job though and they made it to the top, and more impressively, made it back to the car with tired legs!
 
  
We saw two interesting creatures on the hike.  At the summit of Ravens Rock we saw a blue tailed skink...
…and on our way down the mountain we saw a big black snake crossing the path and into the woods...
It was a great hike and a gorgeous day to do it.  We finished things off by heading to Dirt Farm brewery for a flatbread pizza for the kids and a tasty beverage for Mark and I.  The view from ouside the winery were amazing.  My picture here certainly didn’t do it justice, but it was a great way to round out the afternoon.
