So, I decided to attempt a new blueline today that I spotted on the DeLorme. Tiny.
On the way there, I spotted these little jewels and took a pic before they ran off.
Then I hiked to the stream. It didn't look promising -- very tight and shallow...
I kept walking, rhododendron busting, and rock climbing. It got better --
I caught lots of little jewels like these.
All in all it was a fun trip, although I may be getting too old to do this. I still love it, though, and will keep on as long as I can. Now I'm whupped, have sore knees, and the old broken back is talking to me bad.
