Powers Garden Hike  March  2013

Thought I would update while I have a little extra time.  Sadly our Spring Break is coming to an end, but we have had a good one. Spent a couple days at home just hanging out and going to Cameron's first Baseball practices and than the boys went on a 16 mile hike to Powers Garden Near Bonita. During Fall break Chris, Colton and Cameron were able to go, but didn't make it all the way in to Powers Garden, were short by about 2 miles, so this time Chris said they would hike the whole way and since Cyr didn't have baseball practice, they convinced him to go along. The hike is about 8 mikes to the cabin, so they left early Wednesday Morning, drove over past Willcox to Bonita, and started the long hike about 9 that morning and made it to the cabin about 5 that day, Chris said all the boys did great even Cameron who is only 9, they carry their own packs that weigh about 25 pounds each, with very little complaining.  They stayed the night in this cute cabin, they take in all the food and water they need for the day and night!The Next morning they got up had breakfast and headed down the very long 8 mile hike to the car. Its been a quite warm the past few days, they were all worn out when they got to the car, and very happy to be able to go home. Alot of sweat, some blisters and alot of good memories!
