Finally, a day of nice weather when I don't have a million things to do! Just so happened to be the very nicest day since I arrived, with a high in the mid-70s. Spectacular! To take advantage, Katie, Tyler, and I planned a 10 mile hike on Sheep Mountain. It was lovely. We stopped in to the Wagon Wheel on the way back to town to visit Jerry, and we played a few hands of cribbage. I won again, 2:1. Next was some bean bag toss while dinner was on the grill. Hung out for a little longer, then I headed home to catch up on email and blogging. All around a great day, and finally a chance to take photos that are worthy of posting here!
