River Day 02/08/2016

We could see snow this week at the river.  Unfortunately, very little of it made it to river level.  We could see it at the tops of the hills, both on the ground and in the trees, but it changed to rain about 100 feet or so above our elevation.  Temps stayed around 40 degrees, away from the fire anyway.  Oh well, it's still pretty cool watching the snow move across the hilltops.

This week Jay, Ted, Pat and I were at the river for the holiday. 

Pat brought pallets and hotdogs down, so we cooked one over the other, pitchfork style.  Nothing like a hotdog cooked over the fire, especially when you can do eight of them at the same time.  It's been a while since we've done that, and I think everyone there enjoyed the meal.  I know I did.

Freddy came down to talk with us a while.  Monday's wouldn't be the same if he didn't anymore. 

Sometime over the last week or two the river had come up in the yard at the camp, so in addition to the pallets, we had plenty of washed up wood to burn.  Looks like there'll be a little clean up for the next couple of weeks.

Ted helped out with some of the pics this week, so I'm posting quite a few - thanks Ted!

Happy River Day everyone!

What's with the face?!?
