We didn't head off for a hike, but in the mid-afternoon hours (after Adam finished a conference call), we --meaning Adam, Isaac, Brady, and me, because Abby opted out in favor of YouTube and Instant Messaging her friends-- opted to walk to the rec center so the boys could swim. It was a much longer walk than I'd anticipated with lots of elevation change (because mountains, duh me), and we were pretty tired by the time we'd walked there and back. We headed out to dinner at the Snowshoe Brewery, and then came home and played a few rounds of cards before bedtime.
Here we are out on the patio a few minutes before the boys decided they'd had enough of the bugs, which prompted relocation to the kitchen table.
There was really nothing unique about today, as is the case with many, many of our days on this earth, but it was pleasant to go to dinner, pleasant to play cards, and (mostly) pleasant to go for that walk. And for all that pleasantness on an ordinary day, I'm thankful.
