First Backpacking Trip!!

This has been a summer of firsts. I had my first backpacking trip with my newlywed friends Lani and Mark, and my friend Michael. This was also my first time climbing to the top of a mountain. Unfortunately I don't have pictures from my first time going on a 21 mile mountain bike ride. Scared me half to death, but I did it! Backpacking wasn't bad either. Once we got to the top it was stunning! We also made it to the valley at just the right time, all the flowers were in bloom.
