It was a fantastic day for a hike and the boys were definitely up for it. We covered the 3 and a half miles in about 2 hours and they seemed to have energy to spare. Only a couple of complaints and this hike had a 900 foot gain in altitude. It was basically straight up the mountain for the first mile and half and a more gradual decline. It went through woods, fields and on an old mill road. This was our third Virginia State Park during the month of March. Sky Meadows is a little further away so we started out at 8am and grabbed some pancakes at IHOP in Haymarket.
On the way home we stopped just outside Middleburg at Chrysalas Vineyard. I bought a couple bottles but per usual in Virginia, the red was not as good as the white. The boys played with a dog while I tasted some of the juice. I sold the last crib we had to some local folks that answered my Craigs List ad. We have a bunch of people wanting the doll house and one bite on the Health Rider. Hopefully, they will both be gone by the end of the day.
Here are the pictures from the day. http://www.flickr.com/photos/homerclees/sets/72157600026492888/
I got a few good ones.

Those boys are real troopers! I'm impressed. I liked the pictures too. It sounded like a fun day.
