| Been feeling flat and lethargic the past couple of days. Was urged to "go out and do something".
Headed to Ahern for a short run - weather not ideal - mid 80s and muggy. Did quite a bit on the winding bike trails, out into the industrial park and back by Shore Drive. AOWN - in a thicker section of pines when one of them start vbrating right beside me. Took me a couple of seconds to realize that a wood pecker was working on it. Had to circle around to get a view of him. He was focused on his work and didn't get spooked off. They are starting to work on the entrance road. Some heavy equipment and piles of gravel. Hopefully soon. | ||

| Hiked up onto Mt Rowe and spent about 45 minutes picking blue berries. Got about a pint and a half.
Was inspired yesterday evening when I was running by and saw all of them sitting there, ripe and pllump and ready for eating... Saw 1 guy out walking his 2 very friendly dogs - one of them was very interested in the blue berries I'd already picked. | ||

| From the main Gunstock parking lot, south XC trails, checkign out the trail work underway, up to the old logging staging area, then double back and up the indistinct trail that links to the Sidearm trail at the dogleg, then up to Tinderbox and Gunpowder. Took the Brook trail for a change in footing from knee high grass and other stuff to rocks and roots. Ran a few sections on the uphills, but a lot of walking.
Up and over the top of Gunstock, down Flintlock and Trigger Chute to the snowshoe / hiking trail over to Mt Rowe. Came down the Try Me trail, very steep got a good negative workout on my quads. Surprised that there are still some blueberries on the bushes - would have thought they'd be gone by now. Maybe another picking session with a small guy this weekend. | ||

| Fishing with my father-in-law Jim.
Dry River Trail to the bridge, fished down to the 2d crossing, then back to the car. Water down to normal range from all the earlier rain this summer. Not low by any means, just back into the normal range. Was probably 18" higher a month ago, judging from things like the downed tree I sccooted across the river on earlier that was right at water level on the low end. Both ends high and dry now. Not much left of the moose skeleton just above the bridge - looks like a lot of it got washed away by high water. Saw one chunk of a leg bone way downstream. | ||
