Pure Joy



Today we rode Little Happy Camp. On the way up, we saw our big bear again! This time we jumped out of the truck and watched him run down to Grove's Prairie Road, where he just sauntered along. He is huge and beautiful. Little Happy Camp 6/25/25


We also saw a big turkey hen with a bunch of babies and more deer than we could remember to count. lol Katie ran 20 miles to our almost seven. We saved the secondary loop back to the campground road for next time. Ziva does great, but she is turning 12 in a month and we don't want to overtire her. We're retired! We can come up again whenever we want! I just wish the road was better so one: it wouldn't take so long and two: it wouldn't be so stressful looking for dang pot holes. I am the official rock kicker, but I don't mind!

Unfortunately, we also saw the residue of the pot culture we are surrounded with. It makes me sick to my stomach! Lynn called the USFS, but since the WC office is permanently closed, will they drive out from Eureka and clean it up?

 
After we both grumbled and worried over it for a bit, thankfully we had lots of other things we could focus on: dogwoods still blooming, more lupine than I've seen in years, some kind of yellow flower we weren't sure of, bright orange columbine, the love of a good dog, and slobber of a good horse. :) I'm not sure life can get any better.

  1. OMG, should have told me to suck it in! LOL Can I even do that? Great day. I hope the USFS goes up there. I am thinking they are just getting started, but maybe not. What a mess. But someone will get a bunch of good wood and T1-11 siding. Kate is worn out. I think we might sleep in. Ha Ha. That is if I can sleep. What a fun day.

  2. Kate is still worn out. LOL. That's what she gets for chasing ever moving thing.
