Hot Hiking in San Diego

Brent says: Its HOT! We've become so SPOILED out here in SD that this recent burst of 90's and high humidity has us all swooning! I know the other 99% of the country is saying, "Hah! You Caliornia Wuses!!!" but for crying out loud, I don't have AC! What's a man supposed to DO!!!

Anyhow, here's some fun pics from our hot times in this old town -

Saturday, June 24 - Hiking at Mt. Woodson -

We went hiking at a local mountain to commemorate the life of a friend from our community group who was killed last summer in a traffic accident. His name was Pat Klokow, and he would have turned 30 on June 23.

Here's Kat holding Mason, the son of Sharon, one of our friends.

Mason was born in the time between Pat's death and now. It's amazing to see the passage of time, and how it moves so quickly.

John and Heidi. with Mason peaking through - John would look substantially less jovial further up the hill as he carried Mason

The hike was on the whole a jovial celebration of a life well-lived. We shared stories about Pat with those who didn't meet him, and we talked about how much we admired him for his physical endurance and spiritual hunger.

"Summiting" at the top - The whole crew... and don't worry, the baby was FINE. He's just asleep!!!

A good time, a sad time, a happy time - All wrapped into one, I guess. I do know that I am incredibly grateful to share this time with these friends of mine.
