Climbing High

Bushwhacking through the forest behind the cabin
Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I did another knee-busting hike through the forest on the mountain behind the cabin; we even got a bit higher up than we were yesterday.

We had some excellent views from up there, though the morning was a bit overcast.  At least the wind hadn't picked up yet.  We're under a Red Flag Warning both today and tomorrow.

We did some work inside the cabin and out yesterday and today; the next time we're here we'll probably have to do yard work around the property.

Rocks and pine tree

This & next:  did that dead stump grow skyward in the tree?
