Rocks

I’ve been away camping in the mountains for a couple of days. I took a book and a crochet project with me but didn’t touch either of them the whole time (gasp!) I have the account of the camping trip about half-written but haven’t had time to upload more than a few of the photos yet. Meantime, couple of photos we took at Seneca Rocks:

The rocks, as seen from near the trail head (all 3 clickable for full-size, but the full-size ones are ginormous, something like 1152×864):

The rocks, as seen from the top of the trail. We stopped there, wouldn’t have been wise to go any further without helmets and gear and more experience at climbing than either of us have.

And, okay, I know I’m not very photogenic in the first place, but bear in mind here that I’d been camping and hiking and sweating and all that. ’Kay?

I was really proud of us for getting to the top. It’s not a terribly long hike, about a mile and half, and the trail is highly maintained (gravel, 3-4 feet wide), but it’s steep, rises close to 900 feet over a mile and a half, and we are not in the greatest of shape. I was really grateful that my back and neck didn’t stop me from doing what I wanted to do during this trip :)

I’m not sure how I ended up here. This is somewhat surreal. I’m anxious to know if you have now completed the crochet.
