Yesterday we had all three grandkids so we promised them we would take them on a hike. As we waited for it to warm up Greyson asked all kinds of questions about it. He didn't really remember the one we went on last year but Brinley said she did.
When it finally got warm enough we headed to Giant City. I had forgot it was vulturefest in Makanda and the town was really packed. Looked like a great time but probably too crowded for me. We headed straight to Indian Creek Trail instead of taking the long way around the park. I was very surprised when there was no one there, I mean no one. Off we went around the trail with Dax and Greyson chattering the whole time. They wanted to go in the creek bed and walk around so we crossed the same bridge twice, I think they really like going across the various bridges. We got back to the bluff part of the trail and they had a blast climbing on them, oh to be young again. Of course Dax had to do everything the big kids did with a little help of course. We got back on the trail and the home portion of the trail. We finally met a man and kid on the very last part of the trail. We stopped at a playground next to the road that leads to the trail and the played on the equipment for a while. Dax kept going down the slide and giggling everytime. Greyson and Brinkley were all over the place. Everyone decided it was time to eat and wonder of wonder Brinley and Greyson agreed on Quatros. When we got there the placed was packed. We got a booth downstairs and ordered drinks and a salad for us. The kids got croutons and cheese to snack on. The pizza got there and it was a rare substandard pizza. It tasted like it was rushed and needed a little more time. Poor little Dax had a bad moment when Lisa pushed him over to a table full of people we know and everyone was laughing at least until Dax put his head down and really started crying, poor guy. We were going to the park with their bicycles but by the time we got back it was too late. In spite of the pizza it was a great day.
