Hiking with the President


My family is visiting relatives in Maryland for 4th of July weekend. After feasting on crabs yesterday and just hanging out with cousins, we went hiking all day today.

We went to a state park in Maryland that offered a few strenuous hikes to choose from. One trail, however, was closed to the public. After questioning the park rangers, we found out that Camp David is located in this state park. Camp David - where the President goes for a little R&R! The Hog Rock trail, closest to Camp David, was closed, so we conquered Chimney Rock and Wolf Rock instead. The view above is Chimney Rock, where we stopped for lunch. We ended our adventures by hiking to a waterfall. We walked over 18,000 steps today, and we're all going to sleep good tonight!
