Beaver Moon. Road trip, November ’24 — After three days traveling followed by a very busy four days, we were ready to just crash. We stopped for three days in a hotel on the outskirts of Philadelphia to regroup and make some outline plans for our route home.

We’re off on our travels again. On the road again — This time, it is to a four-day business event in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Following this, we will take a slow, as yet undecided, route home.

Journal: Five days R&R in Piney Creek Wilderness, September 2024 — After my last backpacking trip in April, the weather got too hot, and then we spent August in the UK. I was overdue for some lakeside R&R. With the minimal three-mile hike and five days of lounging around. It was more hammock camping and hardly any backpacking!   Journal: 5 17

Gary at Piney Creek Wilderness — I spent most of my time sitting and watching the lake and trees, with the occasional swim to cool down, which was exactly what I wanted to do.

Yet another visitor — I was sitting by the lake enjoying the view when this tarantula ambled by. I’ve been told there are tarantulas in Missouri, but I’ve never seen them, until now.

Another visitor — This time a Stick Insect, or Walking Stick, as Ginger calls them. Piney Creek Wilderness, Missouri.
