Cookie and I went on a hike to the watering hole near her hometown Oakhurst. It was a pretty easy hike with beautiful waterfalls and cool pools with muddy/pebbly rivers. She ate some berries even though I warned her not to! I'm a fanatic about NOT eating ANYTHING wild, especially berries after seeing the film Into the Wild (spoiler alert - the guy DIES from eating wild berries!)

an interesting looking plant species...

This is me at Waterfall #1

Hiking...

Nature!

more trekking...

Trees!

As we rounded the corner we heard a faint 'Kendra! Lauren!' and we looked up to see Steve, Ryan, Kendra, Matt and Justin on top of a cliff!

Here is the watering hole that we played in...

absolutely beautiful...

The water was so crisp and cool...

We thought it would be appropriate to have an 'Herbal Essence' photoshoot underneath the mini waterfall...
