a day off

2-pine-clearing.jpgYesterday Michael and I went exploring. This is the best photo I got before the batteries died. We followed a creek along an old road, then left the road to get over to this clearing with 2 pine trees.  There were several dead apple trees, a scattered stack of fence posts, evidence of piped water, several different old roads or driveways, and many rock walls to shore up sloped edges. Couldn’t find evidence of buildings, and decided these were campers who stayed a long time. “What do you want to do today?” “How about build a road?” “Nah, we did that yesterday. How about a fence today?” Seriously, it was a curious place because it didn’t appear as if trees had been felled to make the clearing. Anyway, I love to explore, and there is a great deal of sites and sights I have yet to discover here in Tulare County!
