We took off and headed north. We made stops for Gas, Dunkin Donuts and then hit the Kancamangus Highway (112) across to Lincoln. We arrived at the Flume Visitor Center and hiked the 2 mile loop around the gorge. Max was even more excited when we showed him his camelbak backpack that he would carry today. Uncle Lucas gave this to him at Christmas. Thanks Lucas.
There were a lot of bridges on the trail and water pretty much showing somewhere the entire hike. Max loves watching running water. For some reason he can stare at it for a long time without getting bored. I'm thinking of installing a waterfall in our living room.
We walked over the covered bridge and came to a huge rock. Of course, Max posed for a picture.
We then hit the trail and took lots of pictures along the way. There were a lot of people out today being a holiday weekend.
After finishing the Flume we stopped for lunch at the Flume Visitor Center. Max got a slice of pizza the size of his head.
We then made the 2 mile drive to the Basin where we walked to the Baby Flume and to the Basin itself. Max did not want to leave the Basin. I did play around with my iPhone a bit taking a panoramic photo of the Basin. I'm loving my new phone. I can see the potential in it for sure.
We then hit the road taking the scenic route home down 93 and then to lake Winnepesauke and Route 11 where we stopped at Johnson's for a "small" Ice Cream.
We continued home and got home just before dark.
Stay tuned. Next week I will be hiking Mt. Cabot on Friday for an attemp at #42 of the 4,000 footer list. Here's to a great start to the summer.
