We had a very nice minimalist Easter day.. I’d call it Leaster. Diane , the dogs and I went for a beutiful hike this morning.. It was a bluebird day.. warmish (40’s) and sunny.. We went up in Littler River State Park..

 

The resovoir was still covered in ice

 

so were parts of the road

 

but things were metling fast. Stephenson brook.. (or is it Joyner brook) was flowing fast

 

We found a cool little nature trail that we’d never seen before

 

lot sof cool relics of the old community here.. Here’ are Dan and Sarah’s house

 

and Chai playing in the flooded cellar hole of their house.

 

and we read about amos chase. he lost an arm in the civil war.. but managed to devise a sling that allowed him to work a scythe with his remaining arm..

the woods had several cellar holes and old fences that marked whre the community had stood..  this fence was a perfect place for a smastone.

 

 

we walke out to the further campsites and hung ou in the empty playground for a boit.. The camp won’t open for more than a month. it was nice having it almost to ourselves.

 

we

stopped on the way back to check out the spill way oeping in the dam.. it was flowing pretty wildly !

The rest of the day was peaceful as well.. hoe is t was good for you all too..

now to sleep

 

nite all. nite sam
