Laurel and I had an amazing day with the Trilliums this past Saturday biking on the Interurban Trail. The day started out chilly but by lunch time there were girls sprawled out in the sun in T-shirts and bare feet. We couldn't have asked for a better day and the group did great sticking together, encouraging one another, and muscling up the big hills on our journey from Fairhaven Park to Lost Lake trailhead. Some highlights from the outing included:
-The usual check-in during Opening Circle and welcoming Jaeli into the group!
- Biking laps around the Fairhaven Park parking lot before taking off down the trail...we looked pretty silly doing it:)
- Stopping at the first overlook to enjoy snack and chit-chat during a rest break
- Getting "gnarly" on the single-track down-hill section of the trail in Arroyo Park.
- Enjoying the trailside views including flowing rivers, cascading waterfalls, and scents of spring as we meandered our way through the forest.
- Stopping mid-way to build forts and reunite the Muddy Butt (now the Muddy Fish Butt) religion.
- Stopping for lunch and Peaceful Place at an INCREDIBLE property with donkeys, a pond, a large waterfall, a beautiful cherry blossom tree, and a sunny lawn to lounge on.
-Making it to our destination just in time for closing circle and an attitude of gratitude for sunshine, good friends, new experiences, mud, and more.
Enjoy the Album of our day here.
