Wyalusing State Park

Finally, a chance to relax!!! With one more test down and summer upon us, Chris and I had the chance to join dear friends from Milwaukee for a weekend of camping, hiking and relaxing at Wyalusing State Park. We drove down on Friday and pitched camp at a scenic campsite overlooking the Wisconsin River Valley. 

Saturday we hiked the Sentinal Ridge Trail which stopped at quite a few different overlooks/points of interest. At this one, the Carrier Pigeon Monument, we stopped for a while longer to eat lunch (hence a chance to bust out the sketchbook).

After hiking and relaxing a bit we headed over to the other side of the Mississippi river into Iowa and Pikes Peak to check out the view from the other side (just as beautiful) and a waterfall. 

Up early the next morning, I had a few minutes to sketch out our luxury sleeping accommodations... the first tent Chris and I purchased together (she has been very good to us). Ah, the memories... we have come so far from our very first time camping and hiking together.
