School's out for summer! (I hope you sang that in your best Alice Cooper rock voice!) For those of you with kids, this week heralds the arrival of summer—that precious window of time chock full of summer camps, playing outside and swimming in our lakes and rivers. Like many Central Oregon parents, one of my favorite outdoor activities is taking some summer hikes with my kids. Though we hike together year round, we all cherish those summertime hikes with more time to linger, swim and enjoy warm days.
