September 8, 2015 Hiking from Rim To Rim

Tuesday, September 8, 2015  Hiking from Rim To Rim

Mike is still a little sore but he thinks that he can do a hike.  We began our hike a little after 7am this morning.  We began at Trail Overlook and made 8 more stops at various points along the way ending at Hermits Rest.  Then we were going to take the bus back to the bus transfer station.  Well folks from start to finish we hiked 9 miles.  We ended at 1130 am.  We are both a little tired and Mike is now really sore so our day is done.  I would have liked to add 1 more mile but another time.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAN.
