Weekend Getaway Part 1...Green Valley Falls


Garth and I went away for the weekend! Shanae was amazing and babysat the kids! It was so much fun! We decided to break the weekend up into two parts! The first part we were supposed to go backpacking in the Cuyamaca's-well since the fire danger was high our plans were altered. We couldn't have a camp stove to hike in with, so last minute we grabbed a campsite and "roughed" it in style. We took a little hike on Friday just to get our hearts moving and thoroughly enjoyed the views of the falls. I can't wait to take the kids back there. Friday night Garth made dinner & dessert and then we headed to bed after enjoying the fire! Well-it started raining on Friday night while we were warm and snuggly in our new sleeping bags which are terrific! I am so glad that my parents taught us to buy quality! My sleeping bag & pad rock!! (Garth has the same kind with the opposite zipper-it works out great!) So, after the rain died down we took a hike on Saturday-a short one of about 4 miles. The views were terrific, even with all of the rain clouds! After we made a quick stop at Viejas to grab some close-toed shoes for me & work shoes for Garth we headed down to the cute little inn we were staying at the 2nd night...in La Jolla!
