Today Anna took us for a hike in Mount Tamalpais State Park, and within it, Muir Woods National Park. It was a 4.7 mile hike through redwood forests, and stunningly beautiful. The weather was perfect--just slightly warm with a cool breeze. The redwoods grow in circles in such a way that they create what look like little families, and when you stand within that circle it truly feels like hallowed ground.
The hike was ranked as "moderately easy" by the guides, however after we scaled what one author called the "grand staircase" we disagreed with this ranking. Now I know how Anna got her fabulous legs! This woman can work it!
After our hike we had Mexican food--empanadas, fish tacos, burritos, and mohitos to share. We definately "burned it to earn it", to steal one of Tommy's lines.

I love Muir Woods. So happy you are having a good time. I didn't comment on it, but the pig story is HILARIOUS. It will be a classic Maggy story.
