Sadly we had to say goodbye to our friends Brad and Ione last Sunday morning. I had such a nice time with them and we seem to have the same interests in the beautiful natural surroundings in this area. It was great getting to know them better and the time went by much too fast which is always an indication of how good a time you are having.We went up to Crystal Lake on Saturday and took a picture at the cross that somebody carved into a stump. It was another wonderfully clear day and we went up to the lookout to see the view. Brad is a very accomplished photographer and he took hundreds of pictures on his trip here and there were certainly some nice photo opportunities up on Mount Hough.
Today Bill is here and we are going down to Greenville Y to do a little metal detecting in the bedrock for gold and maybe a little panning. We will see how that goes.
