Trip into the mountains

FERN CREEK TRAIL

Here it is another day gone and a new one facing us. We have very little time to do all that we have not done so we are making plans for a day trip the mountains on some Jeep trails we have not taken.
Fern Creek is just down the road from us. When we first arrived here it was closed due to the fire so we were not able to go there. Soon we just forgot all about that trail and did others that were open.
Now that our time is running out we thought about going on this trail to check it out. Like I said in my last entree we have been here for over two months and now that time is running out we are thinking of all kinds of things to do.
We packed up and headed out a little latter than usual. It was about 10:00 am and the weather once again was so nice. Top stayed on this time too due to the chance of rain that was in the forecast.


The forest was destroyed in the fire but there was signs of nature coming back


We found several mountain streams 


Many streams just coming up out of the ground


We stopped long enough for a family photo


The Aspens are starting to turn 


Flowers are beginning to come back out 


Found these unusual mushrooms 


And one more 

We had a wonderful day on the mountain and will remember it for many years to come..

You'll be glad you have a blog. Put in it pictures of the area. We've gone back to ours many times to remember what it was like.

Have fun, don't come south too soon, it's still really hot.

Seeing those weird mushrooms reminds me of the song by Jefferson Airplane... "Just go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall" White rabbit was its name I think...

Make a list of all the things you can't get done this year so it will give you incentive to come back next year..... Rod
