Needing to clear our heads and prepare ourselves for what is likely to come in the next 4 years, Laura, Z, Julie, Jill, Fritz and I headed over to the Preston Falls Trail along the middle run of the Tuolumne River. We hiked just a tad over 3 miles into the 6 mile trail. The trail starts where the glaciers ended during the last glacial maximum 20,000yrs ago so there is a lot of great geology to see along the way. The water and rocks are amazing, but we didn't have much time to properly fish on this day. I really enjoyed looking at the laminar flow of the river going over the granite. I hope these memories sustain us while we fight through the impending shitshow.

A quick two night stay at our Laffin Family Cabin while introducing the Bohons to the serenity of the Foothills and western slope of the Sierra. We took a fun, easy hike along the west shore of Pinecrest while admiring the geology. The next day we had a great time visiting the gold rush town of Columbia that offered the boys many opportunities to climb over the exposed limestone.
