Just driving through the hillside to get to the state park, I was expecting something impressive-looking. It never came. We were standing at the bottom and I still wasn&#8217;t impressed. But as we climbed the pink granite hill, it became more interesting. The terrain was ideal for our family with some ascent but not too steep. The pink granite has a rugged beauty rarely seen. And it was just relaxing to be hiking with the family on a cool November morning. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122005tb.jpg\"><font color=\"#ed1e24\"><\/font><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"121122005tb\" border=\"0\" alt=\"121122005tb\" src=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122005tb_thumb.jpg\" width=\"404\" height=\"272\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>Two boys and Superman<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122012tb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"121122012tb\" border=\"0\" alt=\"121122012tb\" src=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122012tb_thumb.jpg\" width=\"404\" height=\"272\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>One girl and Superwoman :-)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122844kb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"121122844kb\" border=\"0\" alt=\"121122844kb\" src=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122844kb_thumb.jpg\" width=\"404\" height=\"304\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>Up we go!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122041tb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"121122041tb\" border=\"0\" alt=\"121122041tb\" src=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122041tb_thumb.jpg\" width=\"404\" height=\"272\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>The kids found a &#8220;cave&#8221; to crawl through<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122037tb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"121122037tb\" border=\"0\" alt=\"121122037tb\" src=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122037tb_thumb.jpg\" width=\"404\" height=\"272\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>Texas is beautiful<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122060tb.jpg\"><font color=\"#ed1e24\"><\/font><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"121122060tb\" border=\"0\" alt=\"121122060tb\" src=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122060tb_thumb.jpg\" width=\"404\" height=\"272\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>My family is beautiful<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122994tb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px\" title=\"121122994tb\" border=\"0\" alt=\"121122994tb\" src=\"https:\/\/toddbolen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/121122994tb_thumb.jpg\" width=\"404\" height=\"272\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>We have a very happy two-year old.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking back on our trip, I think my favorite part was Thanksgiving morning when we climbed Emerald Rock.
