DW and I completed out First Hike on Saturday and had a blast. She runs and works out with me so we were prepared. We decided to take an old trail to the summit and were glad we did. Was a great workout and experience and while the day was overcast, the wind was moving the clouds and cover through so we were able to enjoy the view. I would NEVER have made this trip as a preop. No way I could have done it. We climbed Lyon Mountain, the highest peak in Clinton County Ny. Next up - we are going to tackle the 46 High Peaks in the Adirondacks and become a 46er!

Congratulation!! Well done. Beautiful area.

I love hiking. Unfortunately it is way too hot in SC now to do that. Ugh.. (i don't handle the heat very well)

That is so awesome! Hiking is one of the reasons I had the surgery. I used to do it all the time. I can't wait until I can again!

Congrats!
