A Morning Hike

Saturday morning at 7:00 AM, I fell out of bed into a tank top and shorts, brushed my teeth and tied my tennies. I met my dad at Home Depot and we drove a few short minutes minutes to Oak Mountain State Park.

For 2 hours, we traversed a beautiful bike trail and chatted - the whole time. How rare that I can spend such time goofing off and having deep conversation with one of my family members? We wrapped up the morning with Chic-fil-a biscuits and a visit to my mom at Donut Joe's.

Great outdoors, you just keep bringing people closer together!

*Next time I visit Oak Mtn, I want to actually ride my bike. Fun!

*I'm thinking that an Ikea trip could do for me and my mom what a hiking trip did for me and my dad. That place is a retail jungle!
