Stewart Falls

Friday, September 4, 2009
With Bret's Dad in town, we decided to hike to Stewart Falls, up near Sundance.
This was supposed to be a family friendly hike, but it was a little steep. Luckily, there were enough grown-ups to help out. Here is Bella with Grandma Chris.

We finally made it to the falls. It was a long hard trip, but worth it, they were beautiful!

We decided to try a different way down, thinking it would be easier, it wasn't. This was seriously a hard hike for the kids.
We finally made it down to Sundance, but it was a long haul and we were pretty haggard. Chris and I took the kids for lunch at Sundance, while Bret and Clyde walked up the road another 4 miles to get our cars, poor guys. We later found out that most people just take the lift up to the falls, oh well.
Afterwards, we headed over to Swiss Days so I could do a little shopping. I think we were too tired because I only bought some shoes for June. Most people would have finished their day at this point, but not us, we headed over to Oakley, for a quick visit with Bret's Grandparents. They seem to be doing great. The place they are living allows it's residents to have dogs and June loved running after them. The best moments was when she got behind a lady in a wheel chair and started pushing her. After that, we headed over to the Oakley diner for dinner. By this time, June had gone from being pretty shy around Grandpa, to pointing at him and grunting "Papa" whenever she was unhappy or wanted something. It was as if she was saying "I am not happy and you need to fix it." Of course, he did. The girls were tired, but it was a great day. Let's do it again next year!
