Forest visiting

I rode my dirt bike up into the hills to do some visiting just so I wouldn’t be sitting around my yard all day. I went up to this guys place past his chicken house, but no one was home, not even his dog.

I parked here and got off the bike and shouted, Anyone home a few times but got no response.

So, from there, I rode over to another neighbors which were home so I sat down and we had a nice visit for a couple of hours.

From there, I rode over to this overlook and sat for a bit, enjoying the day.

From there, I rode on down to Two pools to check it out. The pools are holding water nicely, which is good.

I took the long way down the hill to this old apple orchard.

I picked a couple of apples and ate one of them and took off for home.

Trail cam pictures

I collected the trail cam pictures the other day and finally got around to looking at them.

A couple of deer.

A fox at Two pools.

And a bobcat.

A lion.

A buck.

Another lion, maybe a young one.

It hung around this area for some time.

And a hard to see Spotted owl comes in for a landing.

Opossum.

Skunk.

And this band of turkeys comes by for a drink of water.

Nice day.

Forest walk

I needed a walk in the forest today to get a bit of exercise. I hopped on my dirt bike and rode it up to the Talking Trees trail and parked the bike here and got off and headed up the trail behind the bike.

It’s a rather nice trail, most of it not too steep.

It goes on up through the trees crossing the creek here.

I went just past this part as the trail was starting to get steeper which would warm me up too much and cause my itches to kick in.

So, I turned around here and and headed back down the other way.

And continued on down this way which was mostly flat and easy walking.

I crossed the creek again and continued.

The trail went down along side of the creek for a ways.

And eventually ended up in these big redwood trees.

There’s a big cross on one of the big trees marking our family memorial site where I stopped and turned around and went back up the trail to where the dirt bike was parked.
