Saturday morning rain, then more fun!

Friday evening we packed up for another Bob Lake camp -n- trail clearing adventure.
We got to the Bob Lake NFS campground and found all the
lake side sites taken, so we took this one.
NOAA had called for rain late in the afternoon,
but early Saturday morning it was raining!
In fact it rained all morning.
We bummed around in the morning while it rained.
It did finally stop, so we ate lunch and headed out.
We started here, at the junction of the nature trail and Spur trail.
Oh, this does  need some whacking.

The weed whacker may have been the most important tool today.

It was along the meadow of the beaver pond we worked.

Now you can sit on this bench and see the meadow again.
While here, we saw a hummer feeding on the yellow flowers nearby.
I think we need to clear the weeds here as well.
Sandy gets a-going on that.

Ya, that's looking better.

All this supervising is making me tired!
Some dogs spent much of the afternoon looking for frogs.
 
The little creek here drains water from the meadow, into the
beaver pond ahead.

Almost done.

All done!

On the hike out, we spied this pine turning red.

With the chance of rain being high tonight,
we headed back to Ho town.
It's been a busy, busy day and we fell right to sleep.
