Goodnight Afternoon, We had a beautifully sunny day yesterday (high of 69) with intermittent clouds. Overnight we didn’t receive any rain, a nice change, and our low hit a chilly 52 degrees. Currently, we are sitting in the sun with rain hitting us hard at times. Rain has been falling on the skylights all morning creating a calming pitter patter that is expected to last most of the day. Below, one of our lovely squirrels was caught in action by our own Jacob Line. While he looks cute in the picture, not five minutes later he was caught stealing an ash tray from cabin 9. This season, more so than others, the squirrels have been coming at us with all they have. Stealing, medication bottles, phones and headlamps alike, they are a force to be reckoned with. Just a friendly reminder, please DO NOT feed the squirrels (or any other animals) while visiting the lodge. Keep your personal belongings in your pocket or in your pack tucked away or they will find it! Have a fantastic Wednesday, you’re halfway through the week! -Adventure is out there.

Trails ae not paved and hidden by signs, nor always lined with grass and blooms by a lake. Trails are adventure and a hand to still the restless pulse of life when men would break their minds with the weight of thinking. Trails are peace, the call to dreams, the challenge to ascend. Trails are the brisk unfolding of release from bitterness and discouragement. Trails are the random writing on the wall that tells how every person, grown tired at heart of things politically correct and ordered, comes to scrawl his happy thoughts down. Then he gores to start life anew with eagerness and zest. He who walks a trails finds labor that is rest. Within the forest one is surrounded by peace and solitude and wonder, and what he seeks: life, adventure, solace, calm. So no matter where you go, there you are. dy 1985

Squirrel's gotta eat ! They can be a pest, but they sure are fun to watch.
