Before school started we realized that we hadn't done any family hikes during the summer. We decided to attempt the Lower Bell Canyon Reservoir hike, a hike we did last summer with the kids, which we barely survived. We at least had a baseline, and figured the kiddos would be much better hikers this year than last, so it would be a good bet. Fortunately we were right!
All of them hiked all the way up to the lake on their own, and just took turns getting piggyback rides from Kerry on the way down. We laughed when we got 5 minutes up the trail and realized that spot had been the first of many rest breaks last summer, while this time our kids only needed a few water breaks till we got to the top.
Once we reached the reservoir, the kids fed the ducks and threw rocks into the water to see the splashes, and we had lunch.
