We had 5 hikers today,  Lisa,  Effie,  Kim,  Carolyn and Marsha,  along with Junko who returned from doggie  camp with entertaining adventures of her time away. 

Not to be outdone, we human hikers slathered up with bug spray  prior to the hike and we were mosquito free and free to make our own adventures  with running water in the Creek noisily serenading us, dancing squirrels,  chirping birds and tales of good tidings among the hikers. 

Junko went swimming and did the obligatory shaking off of water on Kim. 

All in all, a nice 4.5 mile hike.

Until next time…..

Happy Trails,  Marsha
