Johnson’s Shut-ins 10/27/15

We loaded up and headed down to Johnson Shut-ins to do some easy hiking with the boy and the recently discharged wife. This was our first trip in the ‘new-to-us’ adventure mobile (’08 Mazda5). We were fully expecting the thing to be a penalty box, but it is actually a hoot to drive and it pulls down great MPG’s driving dumb:

The boy was unsure if he liked the idea of being carted around in the minivan:

But after zipping around on the back roads, he was sold:

Hiking take a bit longer these days with the boy exploring everything that catches his fancy. Like a Fence:

The colors weren’t too bad down there either:
