Hiking at Lily Lake

What did you do yesterday? We went to Lily Lake, as you can see from the photo.  After lunch, we climbed a short hike almost all the way around the lake.

It was a beautiful, sunny day.
Chrissa and I in front of the lake.
Here is part of the path we hiked.

Once you got to the top, the view was amazing.
Here's a rock Karen.  In some places of a hike, it's hard to see the trail, so rangers will put a pile of rocks (called a "Karen") so hikers will know where to go.

On the path, Chrissa found this neat little cave.
After our hike, Chrissa and I looked at the waves of the lake, it strongly reminded us of the ocean.  And our house.
"I miss our house, Elizabeth." Chrissa sadly said.
"I do too, Chrissa, I do too."
Traveling is fun, but there's no place like home.

Camping!

Hi all! Chrissa here!  Can you guess were we went over the weekend? (the photo kind of gives it away.)

 Elizabeth and I went camping!
 We hiked along a trail,
then came back to set up the tent.
Elizabeth baked beans while I made the sandwiches.


Mmm.... Nothing like fresh food.
The tent was all ready for bed,but I wasn't.
"Elizabeth, were can I change into my pajamas?" I asked.
"In the tent." she replied.
"But what if someone sees me?"
"Chrissa, no one will see you changing because there isn't anyone within ten miles of here!"Elizabeth said, exasperated.  (She doesn't understand my great fear of being seen while dressing.)
"OK, whatever." I sighed.  Sisters are great, but they can be annoying sometimes.
That pretty much sums it up. 
What did you do over your weekend?
