An afternoon at Mount Vernon

So, this is nature. It’s really pretty… is it always this hot?

I hope that huge steer with minotaur horns doesn’t find out I went to Fogo de Chao last night.

Let’s walk down this nice, wide, flat, well-maintained path through the woods. Perhaps it shall be only 108 in the shade.

Whee! I’m hiking!

Wait, what is this incline doing here.

THIS INCLINE IS NOT THE MAP.

Time for a water break with my new friend Mosley the Mosquito.

When out and about, one must have goals. My goal is that vending machine in the distance.

It’s a vending machine full of sunblock and band aids. A definite sign it’s time to find some a/c, which according to the map is up these stairs.

Oh my gosh how many stairs are there?

NO REALLY… HOW MANY STAIRS ARE THERE?!

Stop by visitor center for a drink. Forget water. I have earned a diet soda.

On the way home contemplate admitting nature is really not so bad.

Except for Mosley.
