Scenery from our 11 year olds scout hike

So I held my first winter campout with the scouts 

in a long time yesterday and today.

I was kind of dreading it all week but now that 

it is over it was OK even though I am very worn out tonight.

It was about 28 degrees F last night around 8:30 pm

and I am sure it got a lot colder before the morning came.

 It was also very foggy this morning when we had our 

five mile hike scheduled.

So it made for some fun photography

during the hike.

 Just a couple of feathers in the snow.

This little fellow almost seemed suspended

in mid-air.

We had five of the scouts go on the hike.

Just wondering what the 

fog crystals tasted like.

Things at the Jensen Farm.

One of the boys brother drove past while we were hiking.

He stopped, turned around and after chatting for a moment

turned again and drove on to where he had originally 

been headed.

The fog was leaving the tops of the mountains free.

Geese also passed over head.

About half way through the five mile hike the boys

started to get tired. No sleep the night before can do that.

Then as we walked along Highway 89 

they decided to see if people would honk.

9 in a row was the record.

We completed the hike and as I figured out 

just how far we had gone the tally came

to 5.00 miles. Couldn't have planned it better.

(Of course I only roughly planned it 

and took a few detours from what I did have planned

but it still worked out perfect.)
