An Adventure of Note


Before her bath earlier this week, Lyla was attacked by a snake.
It was a mighty battle. She won.


Those survival skills could have come in handy last month. We went on a hike, Roger mentioned we were lost. But he didn't mention how lost.

We were heading back up to the top of the trail and decided that we were buff and in a hurry so we would take the cheater trails that connect the switchback. We ended up verrrrrry lost (and slightly terrified) for at least an hour.

I learned many lessons.
Stay to the path. Hold to the rod. Shortcuts are not always shortcuts.
You can't see the forest for the trees.
Last but not least....
when you are very lost, pray very hard.
