i must say, very well rendered description of the hike there, lady. i do have to add...the waters... are incredibly rich and wonderful to play in. i could have done that for hours if i didn't want to actually get anything else accomplished! would have been perfect for me if there was a light mist.

gotta admit though, i seem to have had it the worst... my hip was killin me for the first time, but the knees stopped hurting on the way home that night. good sign, i'd think. who am i kidding here, can barely lift my left leg from the hip.. *evil grin*

quite happy for you, about corbin too. besides the ear-bleeding eeeeeee's, he's one of the best kids i've ever had the pleasure of being around. if he keeps it up, i'll have to scratch "one of" out.
