Actually, the deer had lost its head, but we hadn't yet lost ours. We thought it was pretty hilarious. Bill and Bob hiked with me today. We all knew each other slightly, but we got much better acquainted today.
There is a new campsite just off the trail at the south end of Barry State Game Area. It's always great to see new features and facilities that are added to help hikers.
After a bit of road walking, Bill got acquainted with an extra office chair that had been conveniently left by the road.
Sometimes its fun when the trail is familiar! 25 years ago, Mathilda and I rested in this same pavilion in Prairieville.
The afternoon warmed to the mid 50s, although a cool wind encouraged us to keep hands and heads covered. It was awesome to see beautiful green fields in December.
These two little ponies are certainly pets. They came right over to the fence to say hello!
We finished in really good time. The guys kept me moving right along!
Miles for today: 15.5. Total miles so far 200.5!
