Yesterday I hiked White Oak Canyon Trail. . .4.6 miles in about 1 hour and 52 minutes. If you look closely at the photo above, you'll find the deer we saw. They calmly munched away, totally obliviously to the two-legged intruders upon their habitat.
This is a view from one of the bridges. The summer has been a dry one, so there wasn't much water in the stream. The return hike was a wet one as a much needed soaker rain began pouring down on us. It was warm enough that being wet didn't cause much of a problem, though dry clothes once we reached the car were a blessing.
Though a bit sore from using different muscles, this morning I enjoyed a brisk run in mist and rain.
