Wow thanks to the hares.  That was the bestest hash I ever had. It was so cool.  We went up the trail and down the trail and no one lost their bicycle or GPS or had a flat.


Oh. Oops sorry. One flat. Or two. but no problem.  They fixed it.
Then we had a lovely ending that was near a bubbling brook. But actually about 1.7miles from the bubbling brook because the trail was long enough already.


We are definitely going there again soon. Lots of fun.


That Beavis can sure lay a mean one.      Trail that is.
