Hiking San Pedro Volcano!

Something that Calvin has wanted to do since we got here, was to hike a volcano!  So they did.  Devon and Emily wanted to come too...next time for sure!  Colin, Calvin, Greg D and Greg J all headed out around 6:30am and took a boat over to San Pedro where the hike began.  Three and a half hours up and an hour and a half back.  Calvin and Greg D. "tanked it" and made it up pretty efficiently.  Extremely steep and tough, but they had a great time.  Greg taught Calvin and seminary lesson (well, more of a lesson on "life" and planning for the future by figuring out what Calvin wants most out of life- he's been a great mentor!) as they hiked.  Greg J stayed back with Colin...they had fun talking about all sorts of topics (homesteading I'm sure!).   Thanks Gregs, for being great guides and friends!
Some kind of sign with all sorts of warnings at the base of the volcano hike.  Probably stuff like, "if you stop breathing and have a heart attack, you shouldn't be hiking this volcano)! 




View from the top! 



These "Tarzans" found a vine and had a blast swinging from it (I wondered how they had the strength after all that hiking!)
