Two roads diverged in a yellow woods... May 24, 2009

Hi Caleb,

You know how much Mommy loves to go hiking. This isn't the first post about that... In your short life, Daddy and I have already taken you on several hikes. Since today is Memorial Day, Daddy doesn't have to work. It is a beautiful day, so we decided to head off to the Blue Hills for a little hike. We planned to try out a new trail and estimated it would take us about an hour. Man, were we in for a surprise... Somewhere along the way, we took a wrong turn and ended up REALLY far from where we started. One hour turned into about three. You were not happy to be trapped in the carrier on Daddy's back all that time! Eventually,we had to let you out and you were pretty excited to run around the woods. I was a little worried as to where we would end up, but Daddy was pretty smart about getting us back to where we started. We came across a trail map and Daddy took a picture of it- that way, we could look at it from time to time to make sure we were on the right track. Thanks to Daddy, we finally found our way back. Mommy is going to make sure we get a map before we head off on our next adventure!

Thanks for being such a good boy on a long day! Love you!
