0.6 miles.
Hugh and I have decided that each weekend we're going to trade off with the girls. One weekend I'll take Alex hiking and he'll have Sage (as has been the case every time Alex and I have hiked a 4K), and the other weekend I'll take Sage hiking and he'll have Alex. This way, we each get to spend time with the girls one-on-one. The other weekend day we're all together...we hope to continue this with the girls as they grow for as long as possible.
This was the first time I got to take Sage by myself, while Hugh took Alex. Since we had all hiked Mt. Willard yesterday, I thought it best if Sage and I did something on the short side. The forecast called for rain, so I chose a waterfall -- Sabbady Falls. Sage agreed with the choice, so off we went.
Sabbaday Brook Trail looks like a little road. It's very easy and flat -- up until the Falls, anyway.
Sage particularly liked the wooden fences.
It took us about five minutes to reach the sign to the Falls. A very short hike indeed!
Here Sage is emphasizing the "no swimming" rule (shaking her head and wagging her finger).
We walked down a slight hill and came to the bottom of the Falls.
From here, we walked up some stairs, which brought us immediately next to the falls.
Reaching the top, we turned a corner, sat on a bench, and munched on some trail mix.
We sat for a while, enjoying our snack. We then decided to amble on down.
On the way, Sage wanted to take a picture of this slug...the fascination must run in the family.
This was a very nice, short hike. Scenic and relaxing, a nice cool-down from yesterday's jaunt up Mt. Willard. Sage is a cool kid, and I enjoyed spending some time with just her today.
