The pink flowers are Lewisia. I had one once long ago and it died. I never could understand why, because the rock garden should be a place that makes it really happy. But it was small and came by mail order. These are larger and healthy. They are native to the Rocky Mountains. I think these look great together.
Monica and I went out to the North Country Trail today just for a short while to check on some things for an upcoming event. I had not realized that this wetland was visible from the trail when there are no leaves on the trees!
You know I love new information! This is a wetland that is the headwaters to Tank Creek. I have wandered around there a few times in the past, but got there from a different starting location. The link below is on a nicer day when dog Maggie and I visited years ago.
We didn't walk enough distance to say boo at. I won't count it for Hike 100, but I'll use it to get my yearly mileage back to an even number of tenths.
I did a number of small things I was supposed to do in addition to the time with Monica today.
Miles hiked in 2025: 138.5

Java Bean: "Ayyy, I wouldn't say boo to a short walk, I would just sniff and sniff and sniff!"
Chaplin: "We remember Dennis's stories about Maggie! Apparently she looked a lot like our legendary brother Tucker who we never met!"
Bean and Chaplin- Maggie and Tucker were near twins. It was kind of bizarro. Walks are good- short or long
