Sunday morning, after breakfast, we wanted to do a little more hiking before we made the drive back home so we decided to check out Ash Cave. It may have been one of my favorites for the sheer fact that it was a beautiful, easy walk to see a beautiful cave. Also, it was early enough in the morning that we were practically the only people there.

Since this was a pretty quick trail, Yusaku suggested we check out Conkle's Hollow. Yusaku "encouraged" me to do the 2.5 mile rim trail, assuring me the view at the top would be worth it. I may have been a little hesitant to climb the 200 ft (at a pretty steep ascent), but I let Yusaku push me and I'm glad I did, because he was right - the view at the top was worth it!

Since the 2.5 mile "challenging" trail wasn't enough, Yusaku encouraged me once more to the do the easier mile long trail on the floor of the "hollow." It was definitely much easier than the rim trail.

I would say the trip was the perfect way to celebrate our anniversary - spending time together, enjoying some beautiful scenery, delicious meals, and a massage. Thankful to be married to an adventurous, fun-loving, hard working guy with a great (albeit weird) sense of humor. He happens to also be a pretty great dad! Looking forward to seeing what the next ten years have in store!
