Ben, and I decided to take Ory and go hiking on one of his days off. It was going to be a sunny day outside and was too beautiful to waste sitting inside. Ben had wanted to go on this hike for a little while and the timing was perfect. It wasn't too big of a hike. It was four miles to the top so eight mile round trip and we climbed just over 1000 feet in elevation. The view from the top was pretty amazing. There were a few sketchy areas, but overall it was a very nice trail.
We will hike to the top of this cliff you can see here. Ory has on her back pack! Everyone carries their own lunch in our family :)
At the top! It was quite a steep hike but it was beautiful. If you want to see a crazy hike, then you should check out my friends Kenna and Jason's blog. They recently hike to the top of the German Alps. Their blog is linked on mine, Awesomeblog 5000 I believe it is called. Crazy stuff!
One more step and I literally would walk right off the cliff. I was making Ben just a little nervous here.
Ory had so much fun! They say that for every mile we hike, dogs hike four. I believe it. Ory would always be running ahead and then come back to check on us only to take off again. She had so much fun. She really loves the outdoors.

Pretty awesome. I liked to compare the picture of Ory and Ben, they kinda have the same giddy face goin' on. Thanks for the plug, I always feel pretty special when I sneak onto your blogging world. Tons of missingness from over here.
Waaayyyyy more missingness over here.
What a view! Totally worth the hike!!
Oh yeah, and sweet beard Ben! Thats awesome! Beards are the best.
(the last one was from Jason)...just so we know who's who up in yo' blog.
Ben says thanks. He has had a beard since the day he got out of the Army. Beards are the best!
