Austin: Hike to the Capitol

Today Denman and I took a six mile hike up a creek bed to the Capitol building. Along the way we stopped at Whole Foods and had a fantastic smoothie and lunch. We took a bus home since neither of us really wanted to hike in the 90+ degree heat.

Hiking!

After a long hiatus due to a back injury, I finally got out on a hike this weekend! It was good to get out on the trail. The weather was nice, and the company was quite enjoyable.



We hiked up the West fork of Cold Spring trail to Tangerine falls, and then it started raining! We sat out in the rain enjoying the view for a bit, and then headed back down. The rain turned to hail and we picked up the pace a bit. By the time we reached my car, we were quite wet. I should really keep a towel in my car for these sorts of occasions.
