Red Hills, Spider National Park!

On Saturday, February 10th, me, my dad, and my brother and sister drove up to a personal favorite hiking place, The Red Hills. A.K.A Spider National Park. This place was teeming with them. Yet we come for three reasons: to enjoy nature, to catch millipedes and such, and to swim in The Swimming Hole. The Swimming Hole is a beautiful water hole created by a cascade of river water. We always come to swim in it, and somehow, it always stays full.
There is always spiders though, basking on sunny rocks, until three kids come along and bash them off, shove them in glass jars, and take them home!
That is exactly what we do there. I take the pictures, my sister grabs the jars, and my brother scoops them up (or puts them in his pocket) into them.
We always hike up a massive mountain\hill, also. At the top, we can have a birds-eye view of the snowcapped peaks of Yosemite gleaming on the other side of the Sierra Nevadas, fields and meadows full of emerald grass and bountiful trees. There is even an ancient car far down in one of the meadows that has a tree growing out of it! Then we hike down the other side of the mountain, and leave for home. My dad has suffered much on the cries and pleads of us three begging for ice cream. Somehow, though, we always get it. And it always caps off our days at the great Red Hills, Spider National Park!
