Almost Got Wet On a Dirt Bike Ride With Barry

Wednesday November 2, 2022 Guerneville CA.

Dirt bike ride day

I was preparing to go shopping today at the shopping centers but when I looked out the window I saw Barry there with his truck and dirt bike so plans changed.

We were sitting around getting ready to go when my other brother Tom came by.

Start of crab season

Crab season opens so they were doing some planning to go out on boats in the ocean to get some fresh crab this week. I get too motion sick to go out in the ocean, so I don’t do it, but wish I could.powwow1

 

Dressing warm

It was rather cool today, so I got on extra shirts before Barry and I took off on a ride into the hills.

Big clouds

We rode on up to our rest spot at the mountain top. Some big clouds were coming in and it looked like we  might get a shower or two.sky2

This is our rest spot at the top of the mountain and we are taking a break.break3

 

Some of the clouds were getting pretty dark when we took off again.clouds4

 

Getting wet

It wasn’t long before we got caught in a light shower and were getting wet before we pulled under some trees to wait for the shower to stop which it did in about five minutes. Good thing as we didn’t have any rain gear on.trees5

 

Looking around

We rode up to this spot where we stopped to do some exploring around for a bit, on foot.exploring6

 

Cold today

Barry didn’t put on enough warm clothes so we cut it short and headed on home for the day.

Heavy rain showers

He took off for home and shortly, the real heavy rain showers started and continued off and on for the rest of the day. We would have gotten real wet from one of these showers so we quit right about the right time.

Nice and warm

I cooked up a big pot of Navy beans and stayed in the house for most of the day where it was nice and dry and warm.

While looking for today’s pictures this picture showed up for some reason of a camp spot on our recent trip. This was a nice spot.trip7

Nice day.

A Nice Hike In the Freshly Rained On Forest

Tuesday November 1, 2022 Guerneville CA.

Rain

It was supposed to rain this morning and it did, a little, before I got up. By the time I got up, most of the clouds were gone and the sun was working on coming out.sky1

 

No Plans, but

I hauled some more woodchips to a spot in the yard and did some chair hopping and was wondering what I needed to do today to keep busy and get some exercise.

Forest hike

Well, a fresh rained on forest seemed like the way to go. I had some more exploring to do , so I hopped on the dirt bike and rode on up to this trail and hiked out that way forgetting my camera on my dirt bike.forest2

 

I hiked around a part of the property that I don’t usually walk around much as it’s in steep country. Hiking in the hills gets plenty of exercise as if you go up, you get to go down and if you go down you get to go back up and I did lots of that today.

Went for a ride

When I got back to the bike I rode it down this trail and went for a ride around the property and then headed for home.trail3

 

After a good rest back home I went back out in the yard and did some more chair hopping.

Rodent bait report

I did check the rodent bait to see what was going on with the new store bought bait. I have bait in the dish and under the bucket on the left.bait6

 

The green stuff is the poison bait mixed in with the bait that didn’t work that had plaster of Paris in it. There’s a lot of green showing so they might be eating around it.bait4

 

I checked the bait blocks under the bucket and they were eating just a little, so far.bait5

 

Nice day.
