Summer Hiking: Borrego Bear Wallows
Happy summer! During weeks like this I'm extremely grateful that we had the wisdom to install air conditioning when we bought our house. It has been 90 degrees and sunny in the afternoons and I feel the overwhelming urge to do nothing more than lie on the couch after walking the dog around the block. It is sure nice to be home, though, after two weeks of travel. We had a laid-back 4th of July. I worked my normal schedule at the hospital and Jaycob and Ady enjoyed Pancakes on the Plaza. That evening we made dinner on the grill and went out to hear live music on a patio at a brewery before coming home to comfort a frightened dog during the fireworks. I'm not that enthusiastic about the 4th of July lately, maybe because of the state of the country or maybe because I find fireworks irritating, but I'm sure I'll enjoy it more when Ady is old enough to enjoy the fireworks and festivities. What I do feel patriotic about, however, is the US...
