No Slip-Sliding Away: Estero Trail (7/13)

(Dick Jordan wasn’t along for this hike; photos along with these brief notes are from Theresa Fisher).
P1070008-OffWeGo
  • The ground didn't move beneath our feet like last time!
  • It was pretty misty at the beginning and we all donned our jackets.
  • We ran across another death in the middle of the trail: a mole.
  • We saw about 10 or so Pygmy Nuthatches and they were "life birds" for a couple of us (Karin and Theresa, and perhaps others among the group).
  • Just before reaching our lunch spot a young teenage boy jogged by.  A minute later another boy rode by on a bicycle.  It was Lillian's grandson!  He was spending the weekend with a friend, but she had no idea he would be there.
