Hike around Long Marsh and Steam Hoist Trail

This morning, Sunday August 26, 2007, Mike and I left the Redtown Trailhead on Cougar Mountain and hiked around Long Marsh returning on Steam Hoist Trail. The air was fresh and a little crisp with the sun peaking through the clouds. Mike and I both agreed it was a very nice hike even though we missed our hiking companions. Jim and Vickie are in Germany enjoying Wagner's Ring series. Diane, Scott, and Tyler are at Westport this weekend. The hike took an hour and a half.

Tyler goes hiking

Today, Sunday Aug. 12, 2007, Mike, Scott, Tyler, Lily and I hiked from the Redtown Trailhead of Cougar Mt. to the Far Country Lookout. Tyler was wide awake for the first part of the hike then fell asleep. On the way back Tyler woke up and wondered where his bottle or mommy was. Luckily he soon fell back to sleep enjoying the comfy carrier he was in and the fresh air. The hike took one hour 40 minutes and was around 7,700 steps.

Tyler Visits Mary and Mike

Tyler is now happily visiting outside his own home. Today he is paying a visit to Mary and Mike. His Mom is going into work for a meeting and his dad is busy at his job. We are so lucky to have Tyler consent to stay with us for a morning. Tyler is trying to reach the little mobile on his bouncy vibrating chair. He is getting very close both with his feet and his little hands in reaching these ornaments. He also is cooing and trying to talk to them. Here are some pictures of Tyler in his chair.
