Tony Grove

My first time at Tony's Grove did not disappoint.  The only disappointing part about the whole ordeal was that I hadn't discovered this stunning place earlier.  What a breath taker!  The pine trees were surreal & the aspen's were dreamlike.  Amy + David came with us & I'm so glad they did.  I thoroughly enjoy spending time with Amy + David & my girls absolutely adore them.  The girls immediately decided that they wanted to play in the water.  It was a coolish fall day & so I didn't think they would want to get in....thankfully, I packed London's suit at the last minute....but, failed to pack Penny's.  However, London was wet before I could get her suit on.  We managed to keep her shirt dry though & quickly changed her into her suit.  Penny, was our little mowgli child running around on her hands & feet & playing in the dirt & water.  The temperature quickly dropped & the girls were ready to get out.  Unfortunately, I didn't pack any other clothes for London (since hers were dripping wet), but I did for Penny.  Doi.  Hand to forehead.  So, we put London in Penny's pants & put Penny in her other clothes.  Once the girls were in warm + dry clothes, we hiked around the paths & enjoyed the scenery.  Blake might have carried me on his back the majority of the time because earlier that day, I ran in a mud run & totally rolled my ankle.  Ouch.  London found a few spots that she wanted to stop & sketch in her nature journal.  Once we were done walking around...mostly due to my foot....we packed up & headed to bear Lake to grab some grub.  It was a perfect day trip & I am already dreaming of warmer weather + A TON more Tony Grove.  Until then.
