We decided to have our own Father's Day on the last weekend I was in Kimberley as Brad was down. Logan was at work during the day, but Brad and I went on a hike...
We had a lovely father-daughter bonding moment at the beginning of the hike as we both took a couple of puffs off my nasty-tasting inhailer (next time I am so getting the brand name one). Asthma buddies!
It was a gorgeous day, and though there were some threatening clouds about, and the sound of thunder, it did not rain on us at all.
Due to a) Myrtle Mountain having a rather ridiculous trail system and b) someone being a very bad navigator, our trip to the top ending up being very long and winding (though still gorgeous).
We stopped at this log for quite a bit due to the fact that I largely couldn't breath anymore. At the point where dad was asking if I was okay and I couldn't get enough air to actually answer and was just waving at him was when he (smartly) decided to make me stop for a bit.
The view from the top was totally gorgeous! You can see all the threatening clouds mentioned earlier.
All in all we spent three hours on the mountain on what was a very nice hike - and only about five minutes from Logan's house to the trailhead!
There were loads of people out and about on the mountain, quite a few on bikes.
Once Logan got home from work, we picked up some pizza and slushies for dinner and then watched Terminator 2. I don't want to brag or anything, but I think it was a pretty awesome Father's Day.
It was so great that Brad had both children with him to celebrate an early Father's Day! He does love a good hike. ;)
