This morning Offspring #1's family and I took off for Catoctin Mountain Park in Maryland. The drive was just over a half mile south, past Gettysburg. We hiked to a local overlook where we could see the town of Thurmont, Maryland. The hike was one of those where most of the time you have your eyes on the ground in front of you because of the numerous tripping hazards. There were more rocks to watch out for than roots. We had a good hike. The temperature was about 50 degrees but the wind was gusty and cold. Later we went to a playground in Thurmont so the kids could get rid of excess energy. I had to excess energy after hiking 3 difficult miles. I did try the see saw and found that was more fun than I expected.
