On the last full day of our vacation at Lake Tahoe, we took the girls on a hike above Fallen Leaf Lake. Our intended destination was Grass Lake, but a late start combined with a child-based pace caused us to halt at a stream-crossing at about the 2 mile mark. After a bit of throwing rocks in the water we returned. Mostly Audree rode in the backpack. The trail was often quite rocky and steep (at least to her). Finally, though, she said, “I want to walk!”
I like the image of the hand-in-hand, in-step walking of father and daughter.
