Fish Lake Snow

A gorgeous, warm day at Fish Lake.  There was still snow on the west bank of the lake. Mount McLoughlin was magnificent.  And LT and I had a snowball fight with the wet white stuff.

Dogwoods in Bloom

Red and White dogwoods in front blooming now.  Same color combo as Debbie's red velvet cupcakes!

Lost Creek Spring

Lost Creek Lake is still 15' below what she should be at but we braved the long boat ramp and paddled to the big bridge.  Passing by seasonal waterfalls, the usual serenity was broken by several helicopters helping to ferry downed trees the loggers were thinning from the park. Noisy but impressive seeing the logs dangling 40' below the choppers. 

Also, Sweet Pea has become like Bigfoot and there are sightings everywhere.

Lights Out

 

With the Spring migration happening now, we are being asked to keep the outdoor lights off to help the birds on their way.

Banco in Situ

We had a nice afternoon with Steve and Debbie a few days ago.  Banco made out like a bandit... getting treats and a foot rub.
 

Mount McLoughin

Mount McLoughlin loomed large while driving to Willow Creek Lake yesterday.  Out dormant stratovolcano was on full view during our paddle.  Gorgeous site.

Banco scratched her bottom eyelid open and is now wearing a doggie life preserver to help keep her claws away
