Wedding Hike

Following our morning reception a few of the hardy wedding adventurers along with Ian and I did a 4 mile hike starting at 3pm at the Meadow Trail-head in Lake Leahterwood Park.

Here is a great blog post by a couple that did this trail 2 summers back. http://arklahomahiker.org/2011/07/31/lake-leatherwood-beacham-and-fuller-trails-2011-05-21/

Now 2012 was one of the worst droughts in decades and the lake was quite low, but several enjoyable points made it well worth our time. As a note this trial is very maintained and several stretches are gravel/ maintenance roads, so shoes for such surfaces are recommended.

Wedding Karma

Two days after after our wedding, Ian, myself and a few of our hardy wedding adventure friends went to the turpentine creek wildlife refuge for a morning of volunteering.

Ivy was our contact point and group leader. She gave us a wonderful tour of the facility and put us to work on a painting project that was in dire need of prep work... donated paint that had fully separated, scattered materials... overall we spent most of our time prepping the project for the group that was going to be there the next day. But we did get some areas done and had lots of fun =)
