Gardening

When I was a ranger there, some of us had "naughty tales" that we shared about naughty things we were involved with in earlier times.

My mentor told me about when he and his cousin had graduated from high school, they lived about an hour from the park, decided to go for a weekend. Ever since cars started driving through there have been wildlife jams when traffic is stopped until everyone in front of you take their picture and moves on, often with all roadside parking sloppily filled with temporarily abandoned vehicles. Well these two cousins decided to start a jam, because all you have to do is stop and look off in the distance and fourteen vehicles will instantly crowd around you to see what you're looking at, they hatched a plan. One stayed with the car and the other went the long way to a group of trees or shrubs and shake the branches. As people stopped, the one by the car would tell them that there was a bear out there. A crowd would gather and the two rascals would take off with a good laugh.

Naughty children. The sun is coming out so I hope things are going nicely for your kin and they get to see/enjoy what they were hoping to find.

I'm off to PT so I can come home and enjoy a nice ice pack on my hip.
