Mmmm….nice weather calls for a lovely hike at Catoctin Mountain Park up north of Frederick. It turned out to be quite the off-roading (off-pathing?) experience, climbing up and down the rocks of the falls and around off the trails trying to get where we really wanted to go. Probably only was about 6 miles total, but it felt like much much more than that – we were all pretty glad to get home! (Qualms in the dry area about the stupid, stupid guy that we saw smoking….and all of the parents that thought ‘hey, that’s a great idea, lets climb to the top of the dangerous falls with our young toddlers, i’m in bad shape bu i can hold them’ – wondering if either of those had anything to do with the multitude of sirens and firetrucks we saw heading in on our way out of the park.)

And Cashew is glad to have us back. With that said, check out this video about engineers explaining cats.
