A quater of a century looks like this:

Day 1 of birthday hike.
Couple miles in on day one.

Nick and me

Nick almost to our destination on day 1.

End of day one. Ended at Mona Lake, Ca. If you look on this picture at the mountain range, the very left side of the picture were there is all the white snow at the (almost) edge of the picture, is were we ended up at the day of 2.

The beginning of day 2. We had to cross little creeks and wade through several of them.

Nick and our lovely tent. I took a long nap while Nick went of exploring and fly fishing. He it was for my birthday and I'll take a nap were ever I please.

Looking out over Peeler Lake. Yosemite Wilderness is the Mountain range behind me. There was still snow up there and we went in July.

Nick and the end of our hike on day 3.

This year for my 25th birthday I wanted nothing but to get a way and be by ourselves. Nick took me to the Saw Tooth Range, just outside of Bridgeport, CA. It was a 3 day trip. We back packed in 4 miles to Mona Lake the first day, then 4 more miles to Peeler lake the second day, and the back down all eight miles on the 3 day. It was a lot of fun, except for all the mosquitoes!!!! On the 2nd day, we got up and hiked the 4 miles and were to our destination by lunch time. I decided to want to take a nap, so I did and Nick hiked over to the other side of the lake and went fishing and explored.
I have to say that this year, was a great way to turn 25. Just being out in the wilderness with your sweetheart and no one else! What a great time! Happy Birthday to ME!!!
