Hiking in Valley Forge


This morning we decided to head back to Valley Forge for some hiking. We took the girls and tried the Horseshoe Trail through Mount Misery. The trail was moderately difficult, with some good climbs and nice technical difficulty (at least for us amateurs). Of course, the woods we hiked through were gorgeous and we were able to see some deer, which was cool for me. And along with the deer we also got to see some deer ticks. Mocha had 2 and Emmy 1--we will keep looking on all four of us to ensure that we don't become part of the Lyme Disease endemic.

We were out for about an hour and really enjoyed spending the time outdoors together. The hike was good exercise; both dogs are currently asleep on the couches and I think Michael is not far behind.
