At Porcupine Lake, after our swim

Happy Anniversary! We've been dating for two years today. And we still don't hate each other. Hooray!

It was a gorgeous day for an anniversary, too. A big climb, then rolling ridge walks all day, with wildflowers and beautiful views of the Trinity Alps - granite and other kinds of rocks jutting out. This is more like it.

This afternoon, we found Porcupine Lake, which we heard was great swimming. We spent 3 hours relaxing and swimming. Chris and I swam all the way across and did a tiny amount of cliff jumping. It felt so good to really swim! Then on to another gorgeous lake, where we're camped. We hung out by the fire with Holden, Boots, Bubs and Happy Meal.

I also found out today that Chris bought me an Ipod and got three friends/relatives - Greg Clark, Kevin Farron, and Nikki Daining to put music on it, and that it will be waiting for me in Ashland. I have been floating down the trail. SO HAPPY!

Now sleep. Maybe a 30 tomorrow?
