A hiking mistake

Ever gone on a hiking trail that you thought was going to turn out on a loop and be a nice, long hike that would be scatterd with Aspen trees and lots of diffrent wildflowers? But insted it turned out that you missed the trail-head because a car was parked in front of the sign and you went on a straighter, much shorter trail not expecting to find a sign telling you that the trail you thought you were on was really behind you? So then you go and hike back through the path that you came there on and took a lot shorter hike then you had expected, but the secery was great and the temperture was really really nice? Did it ever happen to you?
My guess is is that you already know that by the way that I just typed that I just experianced it. It was fun, even though we (My aunt Lynda, Kidder, my brother, and I) didn't make it to the right trail. By the way this was on Mt. Lemon whitch is a really big mountain in Tucson. I've been here in Tucson for lets see... 6 day so far, and we are going back home tommorow. It's been fun but I am ready to see Arlo soon agin. Well, thats the very basic info of our hike that we did today!

Lots of stuff going on

Hi! I guess it's time to start typing agin huh? So lets see last time I wrote a post I had just got back from California. The reason why we were there was because my dad and brother went on a biology trip to Catalina Island for My brother's homeschool co-op class. But that was a little while ago so now I can tell you what's more recent! First of all pretty much my whole family got sick with what we think was food poisening which really stinks but I got over it fairly quickly. The after that I got stung by a bee at what? 8:30PM and we wern't shure if I was allergic or not becuase I might have been showing signs of it so I had to go to the emergancey room for just one measly bee sting. Then, geuss what? I got sick with strep throut! So those were all the set bakcs but don't get me wrong, I've got to do some fun things lately! for example: I GOT TO GO CAMPING FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE I WAS ABOUT THREE! That was fun! Even though we only got to stay one night (due to the strep throut) it was fun. We got to go with our friends to a campsite up near a Lake called Big Lake I know, very unique name huh? So yeah that was fun. Oh! some other thing that I'm really exsited about are VBS and my birthday and the fact that we are building a fire pit in our backyard! Just think, roasting marshmellows one minute and swimming in the pool the next! that should be really fun especially when I have discovered the secret to the perfect way of making a s'more!! Here is the not very safe trick: before putting the marshmellow on the sqewer you stick the sqewer into the blazing hot coals untill the sqewer's point is either red-hot or turning rainbowish colors! After that CARFULLY poke the marshmellow onto the BURNING hot sqewer and then toast over the hot coals (but not too close) untill the whole marshmellow is yellowish and a little brown. It's really quite good because the inside of the marshmellow is a little toasty too! Oh yeah! Here is a cool thing that happend when we went camping, me THC and my dad went for a walk\hike to explore around the campsite and when we did we discoverd one of the most beautifull spots of outdoors I've seen in person. THC and I called it the vally of the two forests. When you get through the one wood you come quite suddenly to a big strech of open land the goes on as far as you can see in both directions and on the other side of this open land is a big wall of Aspen trees and pine tress which make it look really REALLY cool. I'm saving that picture of what I saw there in my head as much as I can.
One last thing before I go! As I said VBS is coming up (Which you can read about in other posts of mine) In fact, It starts on monday which is only two days away! Yipppyyy!
