This past weekend, we were lucky enough to have Aaron home again, so we decided to head up to the mountains were it is a lot cooler. We found a short hike to a hidden fall back in the crevice of the mountain. Ashton LOVES hiking and is going to be my next mountain man. He walks the whole time by himself. He was so excited to see the water, he kept trying to climb up and under the fall. It was a small fall, but you could see where flash floods would happen in the event of a storm. I'm sure during the winter, there is a lot more water. Nonetheless, it is beautiful and I always find some sort of peace just being out in the mountains. Aaron and I would like to buy a cabin up there one day. Ashton was able to find a perfect walking stick and wouldn't let go it even in the car. On the way home, we decided to take the scenic route and found a highway that actually takes you to the top of the mountain and around the other side. It was a beautiful ride and we found several more hiking trails we can try out. I also found out there was a ski lodge and runs on the backside of Mt. Charleston. I can't wait for winter and to show Ashton the snow. I don't think we will ever run out of things to do here, we are always finding new trails and new ways to enjoy time as a family.
