Hiking in Glen Canyon

I was interested in doing something new one recent weekend, so Jack and went "to the woods" and did a little hiking. I thought it would be nice to get away from the city's hustle and bustle and expose Jack to the joy of nature.

We didn't wander far and opted to go to Glen Canyon in San Francisco. The canyon felt like a world away. All your senses were challenged -- it was strikingly quiet and you could hear the birds flying above you, the smells were different (like eucalyptus and wet leaves), and there were few people in sight.

I brought along a big baggie for Jack to put his treasures in.

We climbed up a set of stairs and walked along the ridge that led us past some rocks formations, to another set of stairs, and up a hill where we sat and rested before making our way slowly back down.
