My Athleticism put to the TEST!!

I am far from a seasoned hiker and this weekend will be sure to put my athletic ability to the test. After class today I am assembling with my usual hiking/camping/ fun times group to hike Mt. Barney. We will walk 1 K tonight to the campground and then continue hiking all day Saturday and back by Sunday afternoon. I have no idea how long the trek is but Todd did little to quell my nervousness when he said to Tellu and I last night, “I was reading a website that said that it is for expert bushwalkers (hikers), some parts are in double black.” Now I don’t exactly know what double black means but I can tell you that it doesn’t sound too good… ha ha. And all this fun with a pack the size of a child on my back.

Don’t get me wrong, I am looking forward to this trip and I will be sure to tell you all about it when I return victorious!


On a much more leisurely note: here are some pictures from two weekends ago when we went to Somerset Dam and I just barely managed my 180 ;) Todd always gives me a hard time about just taking pictures of nature instead of people so I threw in a good mix for y’all. Ok, off to class and then doom! ;-) Wish me luck!!
