Greg -

We saw our first bear today.   I was a large black bear about a mile from our campsite.

It was another beautiful day with intermittent showers.   Speaking of showers, Jack and I hit the rec center last night.  He swam one of the workouts that his coach provided and I ran on the treadmill.  We've already had more showers this summer than we had during the entire ten weeks last year.  Here are a few shots from earlier in the week.   

One of many waterfalls along the Thom's Creek road.


On the Garnett Road - a logging road off the Nemo Loop.

"Fairy Barf" lichen (I'm not kidding) - it's the collection of pale discs on this rotting stump.

  1. I'm glad to hear that you finally had your first bear encounter - now it's a real adventure that you're on! Also, I'm surprised to hear that you've already had more rain than last year - I thought from some of your posts that you had some beautiful, sunny days. The fairy barf lichen is the whitish looking stuff growing on the bark? We're having a neighborhood BBQ here this weekend without you & Jack. It just won't be the same without you! Mike & Vicky are coming to get their stuff, so if there's anything you want, let Janet know. (Like their snowplow.) Hi Jack!!!
