Hiking Trip to Sly Park

Jeff and I decided that after 5 years of living in Placerville, it was about time that we go to Sly Park Lake. Sly Park is in Pollock Pines off of the Mormon Emigrant Trail. It is a lake complete with camping, hiking, boating and trail riding. It was such a beautiful day - the weather was perfect and after a very wet (and sometimes snowy) winter we thought it was the perfect excuse to get outside. Maya wasn't feeling well and wasn't too keen on the idea of hiking, so we got a sitter to stay with her during the afternoon. We took Marisa and James on a lovely hike to one of the falls in the lake. At the end of our hike, we stopped by the lake to feed the ducks and we were delighted to discover baby ducks! It was a lovely day and Maya even enjoyed her afternoon with her favorite sitter, Kaylie.
