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!

Almost to the end of the two-track. Plenty of mud around.

Today there was a great migration of caterpillars. All but one were crossing the two track from west to east.

Getting closer to the end.
