One Bear, Two Deer, and Squirrels Everywhere!

Memorial Day weekend--whoop! Whoop! Summer is almost here.

Saturday we drove to Little Happy Camp; we will have to cut trees again. Sheesh. We saw a big bear on the way, which made it a great way to start the day. Lynn rode big Zigs again and we went up to the ridge and down and around. It was so nice. We sat on the picnic tables and had granola bars and came home. It was a short ride, but fun.

Sunday, we rode Hennessey again. So far, so good--we can see signs of the motorcycles, but they have not been out there when we are there. Yes, they have ruined many of our trails and it's beyond sad, but we are creating new ones and trying to go places they cannot. We only rode to the turtle pond and back because Ziggy's injuries were bothering him. But like I always tell Lynn, it truly does not matter to me how long we ride--just that we get to do it. Jupiter has become such a good partner; I love being with him. Being in the mountains with Lynn and Ziva and Haley on horseback is as good as it gets.

The big event of the day were the flowers!!! It was a carpet of irises. Millions. It was like no other day. The pictures do not do it justice. We were in awe.
