Boys Hike to La Cruz

We have this mountain by our house...and it's huge. It has a cross at the top of it and it's a beautiful sight on a clear day. Several groups from school have hiked up to the top of it and Jack always wants to go. It seems like it's always either been too hot, too cold, too wet or too rainy for Will to want to hike with a 6 year old. One day during a break it was looking like a perfect day for a hike. So Will pulled Jack aside and asked him if he wanted to have a "guy's day" and go hike that mountain. Jack grinned real big and said in his smiley-shy-Jack-way, "sure".

I don't have a whole lot of details because the boys say that it's just between them. That's just part of the rules of "guy's day" so I will respect the rules. I am glad that Will took the camera and captured this moment for them. It was quite the hike, about 3 miles up, and sometimes you even had to climb on your hands and knees it was so steep. But Jack did it, no problem, and loved every minute of it. I love that they are starting to have these memories together. Jack's growing up so fast. So fun and so sad at the same time!
