“Armored”
I think this is a Giant Woodland Ground Beetle.
“Castle Rock”
One of the destinations on yesterday’s hike
Hiked 30 miles yesterday. Today is definitely a rest day.
View from MacDuff Mountain on a lovely hiking day.

“Thimbleberry”
An annoying trailside weed but the flowers are kinda pretty.
“Honeysuckle”
We are hitting peak rhododendron season down here in the valley.

“Cascades Morning”
The view from Rock Knob
“Plant Fireworks”
On a happier note, took my new (0-to-me) OM-1 II out for its first hike today, and I’m pleased with the results. Now to claw my way up the learning curve on all its features. 568-page manual should keep me busy for a bit.
Livin’ on the Edge just showed up on my speakers. Seems all too appropriate.
