Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry

Aiken


With the cooler temps of fall finally here, we couldn't wait to go camping.  Ashlyn wanted to go with us, but it would have been a 4 hr drive just for her to join us in the mountains. Instead, we agreed to meet in Aiken, SC.


There's just something about getting away for the weekend to hang out with family and the smell of a campfire.  It's good for the soul.  Ashlyn brought along her suture kit since she was still in her surgery rotation.


Right beside us was a 3-mile hiking path.  We couldn't resist.


The next morning as we drove around the city, we came upon a park with another walking path and trail.  There was not rush to get home, so we stopped.


And played....



And played...


And played.  Yes, they are 23 and 13.


Then we found a rock wall and I had to get in on the action!  


One last brief hike on the city trail before we leave.  Aiken is such a beautiful city!
