Week 31: April 22 - 25
Message from Mireles
Happy Easter,
I hope you've enjoyed this 3 day weekend and if not, you've got another one coming!! Whether it be on the lake, at the river or even a park, the weather has been absolutely beautiful. My family and I ventured out to Enchanted Rock, it was our first time and no one warned me about the climb! I'm pretty sure I've got shin splints, but we made it to the Summit and it was beautiful, so worth the climb.With 32 days left, let's continue to count down with purpose. The climb continues, but I imagine the Summit will be well worth it.
