It was supposed to start raining around noon. But it started at 10 am. We can't begrudge the earth receiving the moisture, but it did not make for a favorite hiking day.
Here's another attractive beaver pond. We saw several.
At the end of the day we walked along Wiggle Creek. Not only does it have a funny name, but it's pretty.
Bill took that last picture. It was raining hard enough that I put my camera away for the day. But before the rain, I liked this maple stump covered with suckers. For some reason, they are stressed or something since they seem to think it's September.
The challenge every morning and afternoon is the hordes of skeeters that are waiting in the car for the fresh meat we provide.
One thing I'll say about wearing the headnet with the poncho is that it keeps the mosquitoes from sneaking under the net. It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow too. But then our last two days here should be nice.
Miles today: 9.4. Total miles so far: 4778.8

Those mosquitoes would be a challenge. Glad to hear the head net works well.
Chaplin: "Wiggle Creek? Is it named after a vizsla butt?"
Ann- it's a required piece of gear
Chaplin- hmmm. it was very green. I don't think most Vizsla butts are green.
