Test Hike

Rising at six on a Saturday seems unnecessary - unless you want to make sure your post-crash hiking legs are ready for a trip to the Rockies and if you sleep much later it'll be 100 degrees outside. So up and out I went ...

The start was inviting ...


... but it soon heated up, and my shirt was soon soaking from the light effort of putting one foot in front of the other.

The creeks invited one to jump in ...


In the end, the ol' legs checked out just fine and will soon be laboring up the side of a steep - but cool - mountainside. But, today, I think I'll go home for a nap!
