Saw a little cotton tail rabbit on my hike this morning. Good workout on a 6 mile loop.

Nice work! The flowers are out in full force. I got five miles in today and was happy to be in a cool car on the way back!
Life has been throwing me curve balls this week. So many obstacles blocking me from getting some hiking in. Today’s Thursday and I got 4 miles in this morning after dropping the kids at school. Then off to work with legs feeling great!

Nice work! It is finally getting hot out here so I will have to plan jokes early on the weekends.
Do you guys have any issues with snakes? I saw my first one out two weeks ago.
Went for a hike today with friends and one said he saw a large gopher snake yesterday. I see rattlesnake from time to time. Many times you will see snakes on the edge of shadows. They go back and fort from sun to the shade. I think they regulate their body temperature doing that?

Sorry for delays. I did a few posts on SOTD and my notifications got crazy.
I think you are right about the snakes in the shadows. I always see them in the early evening when the shadows are long.
Glad you are getting out still. I have been slowing down as it’s been 90 on the weekend in Roseville. I will be doing some longer hikes up on Nevada city and truckee soon!
Happy Wednesday brother!
Had a nice late morning hike today. Saw some turkeys being romantic and quite a few hikers enjoying this nice Sunday morning.
Had a nice 6 mile solo hike for my birthday.
It looks very inviting!AA
That birthday hike triggered plantar fasciitis in one foot. I’ve been taking it easy. Trying to do all the things to help recovery. I went shopping at REI today for a new pair of shoes for the trails. I ended up with Brooks Caldera 6 trail runners. I was wearing Hoka brand shoes for a couple years. My last pair seemed to lose the support quickly. I’m planning on trying the Brooks tomorrow.
