The boys had been bugging me to climb Flattop so on a beautiful Weekend day that we were home, we packed some snacks and went for it. The boys easily did it for their first time. I guess we just started a new family tradition.

Pictures of the boys enjoying a gravel beach on Glacier Creek and the Girdwood Playground. Should have been playing in snow, but couldn’t as what little we had was already gone. A third snow-less winter in a row.

In late August Deb and i took Ben on his 1st backpack into Trout Lake Cabin along the southern end of the Resurrection Trail on the Kenai Peninsula. We pushed Ben in the Chariot for the 3.5 -4 mile hike. Ben slept half of the way in and half of the way out. Napped when he needed to at the cbin thus we all slept through the night at the cabin. Ben had fun exploring a new building including wanting to climb the stairs over and over again. Deb kept saying, “he’s gonna be a climber”. We were fortunate to have great weather. Not a drop of rain on us!

I have been home just about all of August enjoying catching up with Ben. Deb and I took advantage of day care one week day and went for a hike up Bird Ridge. My 1st wkd back we attended one of Debs classmates wedding at Arctic Valley. They scored with a beautiful day! Ben and I dressed appropriately for the hot sunny weather.

On July 4th Deb and I got a babysitter to watch Ben for a few hours while we hiked up to Rabbit Lake. We were surprised to see the lake still mostly frozen.
A couple days later we took Ben with us for a walk along the Rainbow Trail which parallels the Seward Highway along Turnagain Arm. Ben loves being outside…..so far!
