DSCN2768.jpg Any hike that begins with cow tilting has got to be good. |
DSCN2769.jpg For those who weren't up to tilting cows, we had lamb tilting. |
DSCN2770.jpg As Julia points out, we titled 5 lambs -- Joanne, Kathy, Laura, Robin and Peggy each titled one. Sherman was properly too embarrased to tilt a little lamb, he was satisfied with tilting cows. |
DSCN2771.jpg After the animal tilting came animal taunting. Joanne offers her thumb to a baby goat instead of milk, while Laura hurls insults at them. "You're so short, you could be a teller at a piggy bank", she shouts. |

DSCN2776.jpg Kathy and Joanne prepare to cross after Julia when, suddenly, Robin makes a dash. All you can see of her is this blur. She knows that every time I take a picture, someone is going to get picked on in the web site. |
DSCN2778.jpg How many more minutes before the next person gets a turn on the log ride? Two. Well, Sherman thinks it's 5, but Laura, Joanne, Peggy, Robin and Kathy think it's two minutes until Julia has to let someone else ride. |
DSCN2779.jpg Rather than taking the short "Bunny Loop", I convnced everyone to take the longer route, with the "obstacle course" option. |
DSCN2782.jpg Has anyone else noticed that Joanne has 3 arms? |
DSCN2783.jpg An overheated, red faced Mike cools off in the stream. |
DSCN2785.jpg This is the great goal. Once you see this sign, all the hard climbing is done. |
DSCN2789.jpg Laura and Sherman seem to always be in the lead, except this time I took a shortcut to get in front of them. That was a mistake -- I quickly let those two eat all the spider webs again. |
DSCN2790.jpg Nothing smart to say -- it's just such a pretty picture of the trail. |
DSCN2792.jpg Back to the farm again, everyone has to go see the pigs. |
