A Hike With Incredible Sights is the Best Kind of Exercise

Like a child facing the prospect of eating a vegetable they detest, I contemplate the thought of my personal nemesis… exercise!

It brings out the worst traits in me. Traits like procrastination, lethargy and excuse making.

“I can’t do it right now. I’ll do it later.”

“I don’t feel up to it today. I’ll be sure to do it another day.”

“I’ve got too much going on. There’s nooo wayyy  I have time for exercise, too!”

But when I do get outside and take a walk in the beautiful morning air or late afternoon sunshine it is rejuvenating and refreshing. It changes my outlook and actually gives me more energy.

And more energy is just what I’ll be needing because for the 2nd time we are headed for Havasupai Falls here in Arizona. Last year I wondered if I could make the hike but I did. (Surprised? I surprised even myself!)

This time around there are 44 of us going! And I am so excited. Excited to be doing this trip with friends and family and believe it or not for the hike. The views along the way make it totally worthwhile.

So I’ll be taking oodles of pictures, I’m sure.

I did not mention that my sister and her family that weren’t able to come last time will be making the hike with us. I am so excited about that! Yes, the same sister that told me I should start posting again with more pictures and less words. She’s such a bugger but I wouldn’t trade her for anything. But it’s a good thing I wasn’t asked that when I was little because I might have done it!

40 days till we leave.
