This is me and my crazy family in long sleeved jackets, pants and heavy backpacks in the hot, humid forest known as Muir Woods. Hi! My name is Micah, my friends call me "Griff" and this my first post. This is NOT an introductory post, I'll do a professional one later, but for now, I would like to share this beautiful trip with all y'all.
What started out as an incredible, relaxing hike through the calming greenery (with BBQ flavored sunflower seeds), ended with dripping sweat, huffing for oxygen, and maybe someone on the brink of tears... no, not really 😂. A serene, hazy view of the ocean was the reward for our efforts. (Wanna see the ocean picture? Check out my mom's post for some part 2. Try and figure out who she is on the platform.)
Though my family and I are more commonly known as "mountain people", a 4-5 mile uphill hike can still take a toll on just about anyone, unless... you're like me! I could've hiked forever! 😏
I've never really given much thought to the trees, other than the fact that the green color has a very soothing effect for some. However, earlier in the hike, we did come across a small creek. Those are definitely some of my favorite sights and sounds in this world. The melodic sounds running water is very well near hypnotic in my head.
Mr. Bridge to Terabithia over here!
Before we finished our trip, we headed down to the beach for some refreshments, and for a proper view the ocean. Everyone else in my family got scoops of ice cream while I, the rebellious one, got an expensive milkshake. Did any of you know, that bbq flavored sunflower seeds and strawberry ice cream go great together?
Just kidding!😛
Anyway, in all seriousness, it was a beautiful trip, the day was great, and I like pickle chips!
All y'all, take it easy!🤙
P.S. For those who find out who my mother is, I heard a rumor from somewhere, if you comment on her post "Griff says hi", she'll award 1 Hive token for each correct comment.
Nice trip you had there. You also have a lovely family. Good to see your post for the first time and I enjoyed how you wrote this. Are you serious about the token award from your mum? I should go find that post , I guess finding it is part of the task cos you didn't leave a link. Haha. See you later BBQ
Hi Adore, thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the post. Yes, I am serious about the token award, as she's already gotten a few of the comments. Good thing you know her, that should make finding easy! ;)

Hey Griff, aka one of the "mountain people"! 😄 What a lovely post!
I see you had a good time with your family on your hike. Been a long time I went on a hike myself because where I stay is not anywhere close to mountains, beach or a wood.
I enjoy being close to nature. I love serenity and these pictures are beautiful!
😄 Is there any hike that never involve these? I'm glad you all get to relax by the beach after your hike. An expensive milkshake is okay by me! Hehe.

Amen. You are welcome
What a beautiful place for a hike. I love walking through the woods, I only get to do this on vacations. Treks are sweaty and dehydrating so an expensive milkshake to end it was a good idea.
Love those images as well!
It was definitely a beautiful place. Thank you for your thoughts. I'm hoping better stuff will come soon, until then, take it easy and God bless you!
Awesome post! and a great place for a hike!

I am really a fan of hills, mountain climbing and outdoor events too.
But most atimes location is a bit far.
I love the uniqueness of your writeup and how you took time to give a detailed explanation.
From the trip to the ocean experience and not forgetting your "expensive milkshake" 😂.
I see fun all through your post.
Outside that I feel the love and passion in your piece making me feel like I actually was in the picture too.
By the way what's "BBQ?"

Hi Griff! This a well detailed post explaining your Wednesday work. Look like a perfect post to me because the pictures you took in the Process are very clear, you must have a good camera.

On Wednesday I saw your mother's post, all the scene she displayed are beautiful and of high quality too, guess you both used the same camera?
