Rod and Lex look forward to our family hiking trips on the weekends. They are climbing up the falls at a local state park here.
	We all needed a rest here. Wow, it was straight up and a lot of work. We were almost to the water falls and we didn't even know it!
	This is along the trail. Even Sebastain was having a good time. People were surprised that he had made it. Did you notice the view?! We are only about a 40 minute drive from here.
	The kids were amazed that water was coming from no where out of the rocks.
	Ana was helping Lex climb up to a huge rock and Rod was right on their heels.
	They were very happy once they made it to the top. Lex was very proud. It took us a while to get them down!
	I guess it is easy to understand why Sebastain thinks he is human. He wouldn't drink water any other way. People laughed at him as they were walking by (or at Melissa for giving him a drink from a cup).
	Rod acts like he has lived in the mountains all his life. He loves all the climbing and rock throwing.
	Well, maybe Lex doesn't quite have his mountain climbing skills master yet. But he was trying. He was a little upset because he couldn't keep up with Ana and Rod. (Poor guy)
	All three of them came up with an idea for our next pet thanks to our visit to the zoo. A pot belly pig. Melissa had to put her foot down on that one!
