You never know what lies beneath the smile.

It could be true happiness or horrible sadness.

This blog is just an insight to me and who I am.

Mt. Kamakasi




Today Kaylee and I decided to go hiking. While running 2 days ago we were looking at the beautiful mountains that surround us and thought we should hike them. Today, we did! On the first mountain we tried, we soon found out that wasn't possible. Signs and dogs just didn't seem like a good idea. So we went to the next one and started up. The mountain was hard to climb up! We kept slipping on the rocks and Kaylee kept screaming as the grasshoppers jumped on her! It was hot and steep! But about after an hour of pushing our way through, we made it! It was so beautiful!!! I just couldn't get over the view!!! We sat on top, ate our Subway sandwiches, and talked away! Not long after a siren started going off in the direction of Spanish Fork. Kaylee and I stared at eachother in horror. This couldn't be good. But then we thought nothing of it. And just as we were calming down a little bit, planes started flying over! We were positive an attack was happening, and we were on a mountain! Just as we are about to pack up a bird decided to fly behind us and yet again, scare us half to death. I'm going to be honest, I was really freaking out!!!! Walking down was so much easier than going up! It took less than half the time and we didn't have to stop every few feet for a breath! But the down side, Kaylee and I aren't the best on our feet! ;) I think I did something to my ankle/leg area during one of the times I slipped. But oh well!! As we climbed down our mountain, now named Mt. Kamakasi, we decided we wanted to more. So we drove up Payson Canyon to the Grotto. It's a super easy hike and there is a trail so we thought we could do it pretty fast! It was super fun and beautiful! When we reached the turning point and were taking photos 2 kinda scary looking boys came up. They turned and left. We laughed to ourselves and started to hike back only to find those boys were BEHIND us! Yeah, we kinda freaked out! Like the scared little girls we are, we sat in the car and waited for them to get in their car and leave. They didn't. So we finally did, only to have them follow us down the canyon! We were so scared!!!! After we got out of the canyon they turned another road and we calmed down!



In conclusion: Kaylee and I have hiked a mountain and now ''own'' a it and we are freaking awesome!!!! :D :D :D
