23 February-Pinnacle

We had the most beautiful weather last week, it made me homesick for San Diego. On Thursday it was up in the 80s, so my parents and I decided we just had to go for a walk somewhere. And it just so happens that Pinnacle Mountain is 20 minutes away from our house! We didn't hike the actual mountain, but we did find a pretty nice trail near it that's still in the park.

19 February-Woolly Hollow

CAUTION: This post is jam-packed with sarcasm. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Possibly the nicest park yet (we've been taking votes) is Woolly Hollow. I don't quite understand why they named it that, but there you go.

AWESOME.

"The the Little Rock?" Obviously whoever wrote this did NOT speak French.

Yes, I'm aware.

May I introduce: the Stupidest Dog in the World, also known as "Dog Who Gets in the Way of Your Camera."

Aww. Sad fact: my mother has decided to do no more "optical illusions." I can tell you're very disappointed.

He turned back.

12 February-Millwood

Our second park today was Millwood State Park.

My mum loved the name of the trail.

"Leaning" on the tree.

Some great real estate near the park.
