Franklin Canyon

So the whole family made it out to Franklin Canyon.  Had a great time too.  But getting there kinda turned into an ordeal.  

We actually went to Runyan Canyon first.  And that was a disaster.  No one told us that on weekends it's a super duper hip scene.  (As evidenced by my use of super duper you can tell I'm not that hip).  The first sign of trouble was when we were about 5 blocks from where we thought the entrance was and saw people by the score dressed in their hip hiking gear walking towards the park.  Baby and two dogs?  We came to the park to hike, not hike to the park.  

Needless to say we spent about 5 minutes looking for parking and left.  Which was no easy decision.  See there's Quinn in her car seat who had yet to fall asleep, there's Lucy who has a carsick problem, and there's Baylee who just likes to whine whenever he's in the car.  And since Little Quinner's seat takes so much space we had to put one dog crate in the ass end of the car.  And since Lucy is the carsick one she got the good crate next to Quinn with the window.  So Baylee was relegated to the ass end with no window and no friends.  And he made us pay for it with his extra loud whining.  

So it was a super fun car ride.  

But once we got there it was great.  Open parking, no hipsters, and great weather.  Course getting there takes you through some lovely windy roads which Lucy really loved.  And she did actually leap out of the car and take a big old dookie.  At least she waited.  

And little Quinners had a great time.  Even loved getting her diaper changed in the Great Outdoors.  So all in all it was a great time had by all.  

Snuck this one in just cuz I like it.
