It's been rainy and overcast here since wed. and it looks like it's going to be another cold cloudy day tomorrow. I love the cold it's the wet that's killing me. Friday about two minutes into my hike I was so wet and muddy that it looked like I had been swimming in a nasty mud whole. Sadly I learned that when your clothing is saturated the water will carry the poison ivy(PI) oils through your clothing and I know have 3 giant patches of PI on the backs of my legs. Though Friday I did get to spend about 50mins fallowing around the cutest little female Golden-cheek I loved watching her behavior and she stayed really low in the trees so I had a great view. I had know idea that they are also territorial but I watched her attack an invading male by her self then with her mate it was really interesting.
I also ran into my first copper head of the season Friday I saw the first one curled up on the edge of a cave the second one I only smelled and let me tell you smelling a copper head is a freaky thing because you don't know where it is. All you do is look around hopping it's not over your head or under the leaves you are about to step on.

Anyway I am off before I get yelled at for slowing down the net.
Love you all
Oh and Jack and Hannah Welcome Mom and I are not just talking to our selves!!!!
