Saturday, August 28, 2004: 7AM - Baby Foot Camp Mr. Mavica and George took off this morning, to see what was ahead of us, down the road. In only a short distance, we came to the road's end! This is truly, "A road less traveled!" After breakfast, we might walk to the ridgeline west of our camp, to see if Baby Foot Lake can be seen.
In the pic below, George and MsTioga look at the lovely early morning.
6PM - Studying Trees We spent much of the day, studying about trees. Mr. Mavica pronounces "tree" as "twee." We don't know why!?
Below is a pic of Baby Twee. It is only 1" high! There are many Baby Twees around our Camp.
George wants to be able to tell one tree from another. So, the entire Team has been studying how to do that! The going has been very slow! We still cannot tell one twee from another twee. Below is a pic of George looking at a fallen branch with a pine cone.
This Camp in Siskiyou National Forest is sooooo wonderful! All we hear is the wind thru the trees. We can see for a zillion miles looking to the east. There are at least five mountain ranges out there, all sort of bluish looking because of the distance. Looking out of the window over the computer workstation, we are overwhelmed with the beauty!
Suppertime We have to go now! MsTioga is calling everybody for supper! Fried Chicken! Yummmmm!
8PM-Ms.Doe Dear came to call Just as supper was finished, guess who dropped by The Team to say hello? Yes, Ms.Doe Dear!! She stayed for almost 45 minutes, walking around MsTioga and eating something, maybe some little grasses that grow in the road.
For some reason, Ms. Doe Dear did not see George and Mr. Mavica taking pics. So we kept as quiet as we could be, and moved sooooooo slowly so Ms. Dear could not hear us.
Ms. Dear began to graze on the side opposite MsTioga's door, so George quietly opened the screen door, and sat with his feet on the step. After awhile, Ms. Dear came around and started grazing right in front of George. Really! Then she raised her head, sniffed and put her little nose within a few inches of George's leg. She must of detected something when she sniffed George so closely, because she moved away a bit. Not running or anything. Wow!
We think that this Ms. Doe Dear, must not have had too much contact with humans, because she did not know danger when she was so close. She was the dearest deer though!
To share the vagabonding life with our fellow RVers like yourself. We hope that you will try to boondock and dry camp.
We have found great joy in camping away from the RV Campground. We would like you to try our camping life style yourself.
Sharing with you our Daily Adventure is our way of encouraging you to try to camp as we do.
