"Aim, it's Tibbet Knob."

A couple of weeks ago me and the boys hiked Tibbet Knob trail in the George Washington National Forest. Brad said that I can't blog about stuff that happened two weeks ago. He wasn't the one with the comprehensive exam, three papers, and two annotated bibliographies due, so he can bite me.

The Tibbet Knob hike was a fun one, not too difficult with a well-marked trail and spectacular views. In talking about it, I may or may not (stress on may) have referred to the hike as Tibetan Mountain. Always the voice of reason, Brad's like, "Aim, it's Tibbet Knob." Ummmmmmmmm........

Anywho, only 3.1 miles long, Tibetan Mountain? was a nice leg stretcher and a beautiful spot for a picnic lunch. I don't know what it is but peanut butter and jelly sandwiches taste so much better when you eat them at a place with a view. Rex thinks so too. In the first pic he's thinking, "Mom, I hate you. Where's my sammich?" and if you look real close in the second pic, you can see the drool dripping from his mouth.



At this particular summit--post-picnic--is where we first experimented with the panoramic feature on my iPhone camera. The details of the hike aren't as fresh in my head (yeah...two weeks...whatever, Brad), but the pictures are still spectacular. No credit to us, though, Mother Nature did all the work.



And we'll conclude with a random photo of my new friend, Mr. Grasshopper.


The end...two weeks late.
