Day 50

Yesterday the weather was amazing so we decided to keep on working on our hiking challenge. We wanted to try a trail that we thought we be less congested due to the beautiful weather.  So I chose the Erie County Bureau of Forestry and I nailed it!  It was super empty!  
 We started our hike on the complete wrong trail!
 But that was ok because we saw some really cool stuff!  Like these tadpole eggs!
And this cute little snake.  But, after two miles we realized something was wrong because we still hadn't found our bridge (our assigned landmark).  
So we referred to good old technology and typed in our coordinates and realized that we had gone the complete wrong way!  So we back tracked.
 This trail as soooo much smoother and much more enjoyable!

 Claire even reached out and held Mark's hand!!!!  It was so sweet and I am so glad that I was able to sneak a pic!
 Then it happened...WE FOUND THE BRIDGE!!!!!!!!!!
 It took us forever but we made it!
 And the kids ended up playing in the creek for a while.


 I love when they play together and still have fun!!!
 Then it was time for our favorite part, the post hike snacks at the car!

Then we had the grandparents stop over for a "safe fire".  If you look closely you can see where Claire marked off each person's spot (all more than 6 feet apart).  

It was a beautiful day filled some amazing memories.
