Silver Falls Hike

04/17 - This year I wanted to celebrate my birthday by taking a hike at Silver Falls.  We decided to take Gavin along and we hiked for about 3 hours.  It was worth the trip as the falls were full and the weather was great!  We saw 4 falls along the trail, flowers and an interesting centipede.
