Half Insane or Half....

Is someone insane if they decided to hike to the top of this?



Via these?




What about if they saw this when they got to the top?


And felt like this?


Last week Ben and a couple of guys from our ward hiked to the top of half dome. It was everything physically and mentally that he thought it would be, and more. It was nice for a few minutes to feel like you were on top of the world. I hope you enjoy some of the other pictures we encountered while hiking.

Way to go Ben!! What a tough hike. I can't believe he stood right on the edge like that - it is such a huge drop!

Hey!!! We miss everyone in Good ol' Modesto. How is the ward?? I can't believe that Lanie is 2! She is cute as ever. Good job Ben at getting up half dome. Griff and I did it (before I had kids) and I swore I'd never do the cables again. PS- Griff is wondering who babysat the kids when Ben went and did half dome... Natalie didn't actually watch them for a full day?
