Hiked the 6 mile circuit around Forest Park with a 20+ lb pack today.  The temperature was 90+ degrees and shade was limited.  Had a great hike and finally broke out the umbrella; what a lifesaver!

The flowers in the park were amazing today.  The fragrance was everywhere and they were in full bloom along the trail.

If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed. – Albert Einstein
