A couple friends from work and I went on a hike yesterday. It's a fairly popular hike; there were a lot of people on the trail, but not so much that it was overwhelming. The drive out there wasn't bad, only hitting traffic once the entire way. The trail led up the side of a mountain to a lake. It was a little under 5 miles round trip, and only a few spots were slightly questionable. According to my friends, the hike was much less strenuous without the snow blocking chunks of the trail. The lake was beautiful! If you're friends with me on Facebook, you'll probably have already seen the pictures by now. The lake itself was small, but with the surrounding mountains, it was an amazing sight.

If I were to ever go on a solo hike, that would be a good first one to do. There are enough people there that if something were to happen to me, someone would be around to hear me yell for help... unless I was knocked unconscious. But still. There's a lot of people on that trail.

Today was kind of an impromptu girl's day. After the week we'd had at work, especially the way that Friday went, it was needed. The hike definitely helped out for a majority of relaxing, but today was kind of a pampering. Pedicures, food, new earrings, and shoes. I'm really not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. Here's to hoping tomorrow isn't nearly as stressful as Friday was.

I saw the pictures. It looks very beautiful!
