We hiked a mountain......

in Wisconsin!?
On a spur of the moment, we decided to head over to Wausau and hike Rib Mountain.  This is the 10th highest point in Wisconsin but due to the flat land surrounding it, it appears to be the highest in the state.  It was a beautiful day to hike......and we took friends with us!
Terry, Erin, Kara, Emily and Trevor

Carlson kids and White kids

Heights have never bothered Erin-she was just loving the
observation tower.  While I just merely tolerated
it.....to take pictures, of course!

Trevor DID make it to the top of the tower...and immediately decided he
would feel MUCH better with his feet planted firmly on the ground!

And THIS is what crossed our path!  We followed it a bit until he quietly made is way into the tall
grass where he could easily hide out!  Jaime was quietly watching the kids trying to
follow the snake when Terry went up beyond her and touched her leg saying "There's another one!".  Poor Jaime........
