Labor Day weekend
The weekend included a trip up to running Springs - a community between lake arrowhead and big bear up in the San bernardino mountains. We drove up to lake arrowhead Friday afternoon and arrived as the sun was going down at a waterfront shopping center and promptly put on winter layers of clothes while all of the people around were still in shorts and t shirts. It was about 60 degrees before the sun went down and felt great in the crisp mountain air.
A live concert, bar food, and a view of lake arrowhead.
Puzzles at the cabin - I focused on the sailboats as Mia did the rest
- We met up with the Kevin (who's family cabin it is) and Kait, Sydney, Molly, and later on Tim. It was an awesome get away. Saturday we went on a hike to a summit and to a small lake and jumped off its dam.
Fireplace heat was necessary as the temps went into the 50s at night

The locals secret spot "hole in the fence"
bringing this frisbee everywhere has become a bit of a running joke, but this day it served as a speaker amplifier for the phone music.

Can't ignore the photogenic quality of Cayman
I was just out of the frame, doing that puzzle
After a couple days at the cabin we came back to normal life with a day to spare to relax. The trip up to the mountains perfect and we all plan to go back in November.
With an extra day off of work following the holiday I surfed, but it was typically bad.
