Rain -
very welcome rain - the fires desperately need it! Not so good for us, but we
ventured out undaunted. The day improved and we had lots of fun. The upside was
we saw some wildlife. Three wolves - one of which very kindly stayed on the
road so I could capture it. A family of chuckers - quail-like birds which when
we approached obviously had a death wish as they ran into our path! Then a cute
little squirrel skittered around on the ground looking for just the right nut
to munch on up in the tree so we could photograph it. The car got muddied up
with the dirt roads. But we had fun. Did I say we had fun? Well we did! Despite a hike in the rain along the shore of Bowman Lake.

| We took another trail on our return but it was obviously not well used as it seemed to peter out |
