At the bottom of a small hill, looking up - the descent used to be through a nice rock garden, but the property owners piled these boulders in the trail to prevent ATVs from using it:

This is actually quite a steep uphill section, although you wouldn't know it from this photo. It is an old road which heads straight up a hill and straight down the other side:

Finally at the top of the trail, a long way up from the valley floor:

After the ride down the other side I'm greeted with a peaceful pastoral scene:

Only seven months to go until next June.

And I see now, after seeing BengBoy's post, that the way to do a two-parter is to do the second part as a reply.

Sigh.....
We woke to snow on the roof tops this morning! :eek:

for now I'll have to settle for visiting June at the neighborhood Diner, she works the morning shift. :D

Thanks for the warm memories.

Whats Special about June? Theres at least 6 months of weather heading your way to be able to enjoy yourself with. I can recommend Panaracer Mud Pro's in 1.8.


They work in snow aswell.
