Washington Valley Park Reservoir HIKE

TODAY WAS HOT, reaching almost 100*, I wanted a pool. It didn’t happen. I did however want to enjoy the day, so Scott, our friend Brendon and I set out on a HIKE!

We went semi local and hit some nearby trails in Bridgewater.

We made it about 5.5 miles.

I was so hot I had backpack sweat stains on my tank top.. yes, the straps. Don’t worry my back was completely soaked as well.. Whoever invented camlebacks kinda rules.. just sayin.

Jocky Hollow Hike

Yesterday Scott and I planned on hiking. We weren’t sure if we should because the weather wasn’t looking so great. It had rained all morning and some weather said sun and some said rain. We decided to tough it out and head out on our scheduled hike.

We planned to take the 6 mile white trail loop. It didn’t quite go as we had planned though. 2 miles in it started ti rain, and then it rained harder and harder. I thankfully have thrown a couple ziplock bags in our backpack JUST IN CASE. THANK GOODNESS I DID THAT!!!

Card Book

I was browsing Pinterest, you know as I usually do and I came across a SUPER CUTE idea!!

Turning cards into a BOOK!

YES! SO FUN and SO EASY!

I go myself some book rings at staples and I borrowed a single hole punch and got to work with all my bridal shower cards!

Ramapo Reservation

On Tuesday and Fridays I get out of work fairly early. Scott usually doesn’t get weekends off but every so often he does get Tuesday and or Friday! Those have become our hiking days! WE ARE OBSESSED! Scott loves finding awesome trails with lakes and waterfalls ETC.

Yesterday we went on our 2nd hike of the season. We completed 5 miles in about 2 hours and 15 minutes. We took Chancy Handsome along and had a seriously awesome time. Complete with an awesome view!
