So Tuesday evening we went to go visit the Hahns, some good friends of ours who used to live in Iowa City. They now live outside Minneapolis in Hudson, WI and we decided that it would be fun to go on a little 1 1/2 mile hike which ends at this awesome waterfall. Sounds great!!When we got to the trailhead we didn't realize that the trail would still be covered with snow...which was melting...which made it slippery...on a trail that went *steeply* downhill. You get the idea. The big boys and Hannah thought it was a blast, little 3 year old Eli, not so much. Maddi did ok because daddy helped her, and of course I had on capri jeans and no socks with my shoes. Good idea!! At one point, Nikki gave me a piggy back ride through a whole bunch of water because her feet were already wet. I must say that rocked--thanks!
That being said, we made it to the bottom with no major catastrophes occurring, and the waterfall really was amazing. You could tell lots of snow upstream had been melting because the run off was pretty intense, but to be outdoors, hiking in the woods...that's good enough for me!
