Beckett Hikes

We live really close to a state park and occasionally head over there for a short hike. The problem is that Beckett is an excellent hiker and Felix is a lousy hiker, so the hike always ends much sooner than Beckett wants it to. We decided it was time that Beckett went hiking without Felix.



Beckett has always been an excellent hiker. I was taking him on hikes before he even turned two. Now hiking for Beckett is more like going on a run. I always prepare by putting on my running shoes and shorts. 

Our goal for the hike was to see the waterfalls that we knew were farther down the trail. This is the first waterfall we encountered. Beckett insisted we go a little farther, and I'm glad we did because next we saw ....


 this waterfall. Beckett enjoyed exploring all around the waterfalls.



A couple weeks later Beckett came home from running errands with Nate and asked me if I wanted to go on a hike. I quickly changed into my running clothes (absolutely necessary), and we headed out. We ran most of the way to the waterfalls. Once we made it to the second waterfall we crossed over the stream and continued hiking until we got to the bridge that goes over the Patapsco River.

On our way back we passed some of the same people that we had seen before, and they were really impressed that Beckett was still moving so quickly.
