During the 4th of July weekend James and Julie came to spend time with us. We all went and rode the Hiawatha Trail. It was so neat! We decided to start at the bottom of the trail and ride up (most people start at the top and ride down, then have a shuttle take them back up to the top) It was quite a ride....not too hard but hard enough! During the ride we went through 9 tunnels. Some of these tunnels were short and you could see the end but some of the tunnels were longer and you needed a light to see in front of you. The longest tunnel was over 1 1/2 miles long! We realized early on that we all wanted to ride by Jordan because his light was the strongest! We also went over tressels which is a type of bridge. The views were amazing! We had such a great time spending time together as family enjoying the freedoms of being American!
