Happy new year! Go explore new hiking trails!

  

First day of the year! Although it is just a change on the calendar and people are way over rated it, it is still a good feeling that we get to do something new for the new year! People do regret and want to restart all the time, and I guess it is really the day that nobody would stop you from doing so!

Today our family of four went to the county park for a hike in the hills. In fact we just came visit the park yesterday and I think I haven’t visit for a year since my pass expired. So yesterday, I decided I should take kids out more and also to utilize the great county resources, then we purchased the annual pass. So to keep my determination going, we went again, where it is actually only 5 min drive from our home. And this time we went on the hiking trails in the hills.

It was really cold this winter, and today it was too. So I did wrap myself up with a winter jack t and brought a warming pack and gloves. We walked up and along the hills and enjoyed great view of the South Bay. The hike was probably just 2 miles, but there are a few ups and downs. Kids, my husband and I were just happy that we got to spend time together.

I’m just really glad we did something that we’ve never done/been to before, and it was a great experience. So for this new year, I hope to experience more new things, go to some new places, like taking new hiking trails. No one knows, maybe the hike is hard but the view is great.
