In stead of posting a picture of the rain and clouds that are draping over the mountain as I type, I thought I would post another one from my hike on Thursday. This is another view from Rocky Spur. We are currently in the clouds and listening to the rain drops on the roof. The temperatures have hovered in the 40s for the high and the low. The crew is looking forward to a nice lunch today. I hand churned some lemon buttermilk ice cream for desert. That should bring the sunshine out.
I hope that all the mothers out there have a great Mothers Day! I would like to say Happy Mothers to my mom. She is the best mom a girl could ask for.

As I look at today's picture, I'm having trouble making sense of it. It looks more like a picture OF Rocky Spur FROM the Bullhead trail before it begins to descend away from the Rainbow Falls trail. As I recall from a winter hike, I looked down at the spine of pines visible in the center of the picture from high on Bullhead trail.

Would you please arrange to have the rain stop before Wednesday. We would like to see the view this year. It has been a couple of years since we have seen anything from the top. Enjoy your pictures and comments.
