Warm River Bike Ride Aug. 2012

Hi Family!

The site has been quiet for a few days so I thought I’d add something.

We’ve discovered some bike trails in beautiful country less than 2 hours away!  Jessica, Jacob, Madeline and I took our bikes to Ashton, Idaho, about 1 1/2 hours away and enjoyed a beautiful ride on a rail trail along Warm River.  It took us one hour and 45 minutes to go up and 45 minutes to coast down.  Madeline was a trooper on the uphill side.  We took lots of breaks going up, even discovering a wild raspberry patch!  That was the only rest stop we took on the way down.  We’ll have to go back because there is much more to the trail and so much more to see.  A rail trail, for those who may not know, was once a railway line which has now been converted to a bike path.

Love you all!
Melanie
