Father's Day on Bear Mountain 2012

For Father's Day, James made Kevin a card with his hand-print on the cover and a lengthy thank you for all the wonderful fathering he does. Afterwards, we drove upstate so that Kevin could collect his present- 2 baby-free hikes, and 1 family hike.

Kevin went for his first hike on Sunday afternoon, a 4-hour hike up Millbrook Mountain. Then early Monday morning he went for another 2-hour hike up Storm King Mountain. I don't have photos of Kevin hiking, but this is what James and I were doing at the hotel for many hours.

Then Monday after we went to Bear Mountain. We had some trouble finding the summit. Make a note, Foursquare is not a navigation device. When we did, all James wanted to do as stomp around in this little random hole on the mountain. He was not interested in views or greenery, or animal life. No, just a little gravelly hole. And as we all know, James strongly resists holding hands. Not a great personality trait to exhibit on a mountain. So Kevin opted to carry him on his shoulders so he'd stay out of trouble.
