Marshall Valley Hat Trick
Wednesday, July 25, 2018 - Marshall Valley Trail
Phase 1. With ominous clouds overhead, we set some goals for the hike:
Don't get struck by lightning.
Don't fall on your face.
Don't get rained on.
Along the way, we observed that if Goal 1 fails, Goals 2 and 3 also fail. We walked half a mile and stopped at a cattle gate. The clouds were getting darker. We decided to head back.
We reached the trailhead with all three goals intact: a Humpday Hat Trick.
Phase 2: Tandoori Grill: naan, vindaloo, chicken tikka masala, etc.
Phase 3: Sweet Cow Ice Cream, with screeching laughter from the next table. Apparently, everything is hilarious with ice cream.
