Saturday morning we met up with Laurent and Grandma in Springerville and had breakfast at the McDonald’s. We found out there had been some early morning drama at the hotel. Grandma had taken a wrong step in the dark on her way into the bathroom and had a fall that banged her up pretty badly. She decided, wisely, to take the day to rest and recover while we went ahead up into the mountains for our hike.
Our first stop was Pole Knoll, a favorite up in the pines with an easy trail and room to run, along with a nice picnic area. Since one child was having some behavioral issues, I sent the camera along with the others while I sat at the picnic area with my buddy. They brought back such awesome shots!
