40 Before 40: Take a Hike {Locally}

When Ryan & I began dating, our courtship was spent hiking all around California. We learned a lot about one another on those long hikes. We learned a lot about ourselves as well. So when wanting to enjoy the simple things in life as my big birthday approaches, hiking seemed a natural choice.

Kentucky has so many options for local hikes. They might not be as steep as those out west, but their beauty is equally matched {if not more}. We enjoyed entering Daniel Boone National Forest and seeing the gorgeous Cumberland Falls. Skipping rocks on the water one day and chasing rainbows on the water. 

The next day it was time to hike Eagle Falls. The trail is a mixture of man made & natural paths. Rails guarding some areas while others are exposed to the cliff sides. Natural rocky terrain made into stairs and huge rock formations that serves as climbing perches.

It truly was a gorgeous hike that set me back into those early dating days.  A moment with the Earth, the Lord, and the ones you love!
