Come on, who thought of The Carpenters with that blog post?
"I'm on the ... top of the world, looking down on creation & the only explanation I can find..."
On Saturday, as a final hurrah to our summer, Bekah and I hiked Mount Timpanogos. Now, we invited at least 50 people from our school and BYU
... but no one wanted to join us (insert tears here). Even though we
were a bit saddened by this news, we figured it meant that everyone
else was intimidated by the hike & our mad skills.
Heehee. Or so we kept telling ourselves that afternoon. Because,
really. Who wouldn't want to hang out with us? We're funny. And semi
athletic? But surely we are entertaining company!14 miles. That's a long hike. I think that's the longest I've ever done, though I know there are more intense, longer hikes in the world. But, though I did have to remind myself a few times that the view would be "worth it," I can promise you...it's an incredible feeling when you reach the peak!
I've heard of people hiking to the peak and arriving just in time for the sunrise. Now, that would be beautiful! Bucket list item? Maybe.
