The Caspar logging road provided an ideal winter setting for a morning walk or jog. The road was blanketed in Redwood and Fir needles telling of recent gusty winds. Today however was calm and peaceful with no wind and only a hint of sprinkling for a brief moment at the start.

The temperature, a mild 51 degrees, was a pleasant change from the low 30's that frosted the coastline the previous mornings. Some Fog Dodgers, dressed for colder weather, were soon peeling off a layer of outer wear to keep from over heating.

We bent Tom's rule of starting at exactly 8 AM. For reasons unknown a few were eager to get moving so we set off 30 seconds early. I don't think anyone got left behind.

The attendance was good, culminating an extended holiday with family and friends.
Present were John, Sam, Deb, Ron, Charlene, Toni, Bob, Shari, and Peter with son and daughter-in-law Ben and Erin.

A visual reward presented itself as we were driving away and nearing highway 1. A full
rainbow appeared to the west over the village of Caspar.
No it was not the Botanical Garden.
All of the wonderful photos are from John Loomis. My favorites are the swirling clouds and Caspar sheep.
Thank you John.
