Gone Camping !

Well, we went over to the Storage Unit and grabbed onto our Aliner Camper, loaded her up and headed out for a few days of camping, we both felt good, so we left for the "Tug  Hill Plateau" !
We went up to the Sugar River area and spent some time, really nice, Hot during the day up to 80 and cool nights.

.
I am pleased I have lost 50 pounds and have been able to keep it off!!!!! 
.

.
We hiked down to the Sugar River Falls in Talcottville, pretty good hike of about a mile but rough coming back UP !!!!
.
We found an old Cemetary, there were lots of old broken down stones, Civil War and Revolutionary War Stones, this is the first time I saw a repaired stone using pieces of aluminium and lag screws.  Pretty neat.
.

.
We wandered back of the Fence and this little filly came charging towards us and momma was right behind, Horse flies were terrible !!!!!
.

.
We went over to Whetstone Gulf and camped there for couple of days and it was nice.
.

.
My favorite part of camping is cooking, really like cooking over a wood fire !!!
.

.
Better than cooking is eating, fresh hot biscuits cooked in the fire, eggs, pork sausage, and NAVY COFFEE !!!!!!!!
.

.
After Breakfast time for a hiike as we both felt good, so off we went hiking the North Rim of "Whetstone Gulf" !!! 
.

.
The picture above is the fresh gully dug out by spring run off from the Heavy rains we had for about 3 weeks !
.

.
Lots of foot bridges to get over areas of water and also walkways thru paths of Poison Ivy and Poison Oak.
.
We were blessed as we found a large area of "Jack-In-The-Pulpits",  Arisaema triphyllum (jack-in-the-pulpit, bog onion, brown dragon, Indian turnip, American wake robin, or wild turnip)  (12–26 in) in height with three-parted leaves and flowers contained in a spadix that is covered by a hood.  A preparation of the root is used as a treatment for sore eyes. Preparations can also be made to treat rheumatism, bronchitis,the Plant was at one time protected on the endangered list, we just checked them over and left them.

Above is the Purple Jack, the liquid in the cup is poison.
.

.
We sat around the wood fire and enjoyed ourselves and we ate good and it was quiet sleeping except we were awoken in middle of night by growls, screams and brush rattles.
.

.
Sitting around the Fire relaxing with morning Coffee !!!
.

.
Up early in morning and scouted out where the screaming and Growling and thrshing came from, looks like a Bear tangled with possible a Bobcat from the looks of things !
.

.
Supper was Aspragus cooked over the wood fire and cheeseburgers with a tossed salad, delicious.
.

.
I brought the "Dobro" and did several songs I am going to Play for Church Services on Sunday at the Nursing Home,  it was nice, very few people, and I learned a couple of new licks on the Dobro.I
.

.
Well, this is where we sat and Talked, Prayed, did some thinking and relaxing.   Headed home to plug back in and see whats going on in the world.
.
DON'T FORGET, REMEMBER OUR VETS !!!
