It's that time of year and the annual Monarch butterfly migration is underway. The evenings are becoming cooler as the sun moves northward in the sky.
We've experiences wetter weather this August. But on our trek we've had a lot of wonderful sun, too. Warm water temperatures (70F). cool evening breezes and lovely evenings and sunsets.
When it rains we don appropriate clothes and hike a few miles into the woods or state parks. I prefer hiking boots, jeans and a lightweight Marmot rain coat with a wide brimmed hat. But we take what we have and what works. Then as a group, off we go!
When the rain stops the sand drains quickly and we dance and laugh.
With the rejuvenating rain mushrooms come up.
Returning to our campsite we prepare dinner. After dinner and as dusk approaches I light a campfire, and when darkness falls we sip tea and tell stories.
