Big River Logging Road

I don't know if anybody caught my error last week.  I thought we hadn't been to Big River for over a month and therefore chose it for this week's run/walk.   I had been having computer problems, maybe mental also?, because it had been only two weeks.   I was away in Oregon and, as I said, having a computer death.   Anyway, we had a good turnout this morning and everyone seemed happy.

 It was 51 degrees at Big River and that means mosquitoes!  They seem to come out whenever the temperature gets around or above 50.   It was an overcast and drizzly morning, good for running.

  I want to thank Tonita for bringing guests, Zonia, Shelley and Sandra.  Charlene and Ron brought Caroline and Richard for their second (at least) visit, thank you.  Also present:  Tom T., Bob J., Fran, Dorothy, Cheryl N., Neil, Orah, Steve, Joe, Bob, John, Greg, Ginny, Terry, Geri, Suzanne, Henry, Rick C., Cheryl, Rod, Nancy and Tom (30).

John went salmon fishing this week and caught a nice 21 lb. fish and the buoy picture here.  All of the pictures here are from John and taken near our run/walk today, thanks John!   I'm adding another photo here, after the blog was posted, so I hope it comes out.  A lot of you were looking at this guy in the river just before our run/walk this morning:

It has been 11 weeks since we met at Russian Gulch, so let's try it next week.   Those that want to walk their dogs can do so everywhere except in Fern Canyon.  That leaves plenty of roads and trails.

NEXT SUNDAY, June 16th,  @ 8:00 A.M.:  RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK,  see "Our Routes" above.

EVERY TUESDAY @ 7:00 A.M.: RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK, beginning on Point Cabrillo Drive, 1/10 of a mile north of its south end.
