Same Old, Same Old







Nothing much is new. Love Man is here and we have been hanging out by the pool.




The husband and I hiked yesterday. This is apparently what we are going to start doing. I am fine with it, if it does not kill me. We hiked North Mountain, it is fast and short. It took us about 45 minutes. I still don't have a camera, but have been using photos from the web. So, it is all good.


Here is information on North Mountain:


Trail #44 - North Mountain National Trail. Length: 1.6 miles. Elevation: 2,104 ft. - 1,490 ft. Recommended for hiking only Difficulty: Moderate to difficult
The trailhead is located at the Maricopa picnic area in North Mountain Park where paved parking, restrooms and drinking water are available.
The trail travels north up an incline and set of steps. Follow the paved road to the top of the mountain. Bear left just below the towers and follow the trail along the ridge to the junction with #44A from the Quechan picnic area. The trail continues south from the junction along the ridge and ends at the picnic area near the water pumping station.
