One last camping trip.....One last moose?





Well I've survived the weekend with Roberta Gordon and Ira at Wildhorse once again. A couple of great moose sightings. A huge bull was less then 50 yard from us, but I didn't have my camera. I did go back for the camera when we saw the mama and her twin babies though.
Nights were chilly (in a good way!) and some of the leaves were beginning to turn.

That last picture is Ira scaling the side of Fall creek falls. Those may look like green shorts, but they are actually his underwear. I thought it was hilarious. He schleped all the way to the top in his work shoes and underwear.
I laid in my hammock, walked up the canyon and on saturday and sunday avoided all the 4 wheelers from the labor day weekend.
This was a good exercise in getting ready for my trip with Roberta to Wales next week.

Deep breaths, lots of visualization.
I'm sad summer is over even if I don't have to be back in Tucson until January. I nearly cried when I was driving out. Pathetic really.

Obviously the air quality has improved since the view of McCaleb. Those are some lovely shots! The colors and vibrance are great!
And yes, those do "appear" to be shorts...
I think the deep breath exercises should serve you well - having spent 3 tortuous hours with Judi last night at the fair, with my own share of deep breathing and counting to 10 exercises...

Those pictures are BEAUTIFUL!!! I want to be a park ranger or game wardern of that forest when I graduate. But only during this time of year.

Thanks for the cell phone input. Sadly, we don't have alltel. *sigh*
