A Hike in the Mountains

While visiting a church nearer to our home than our regular church, we got invited to  a brunch at a couple's house, which is kind of in the mountains.  The Ritter's commute a ways to church, but they sure have a nice place to invite people--especially in October when the leaves are starting to turn colors.  After the delicious brunch, we split up into 2 groups.  Some walked on the golf cart path, while the rest hiked along a creek.  We decided to join the hikers.  About two-thirds of the way, we got off the path and got lost for a little while, but it wasn't long till we got back on the right path.  I had left our van at the end of the trail, so finding the right path was good.  At the end of the hike, there were a couple of scratches from falls, a few wet feet from crossing the creek, and a few tired muscles, but it was so much fun!
