Yep, the butterfly was a challenge. I did also get a shot of it on the ground, but not as nice a pic as in the tree. Luckily it was cold and it wanted the warmth of the sun.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302493174417839271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25269877.post-85364607611507612022009-04-26T23:12:00.000-07:002009-04-26T23:12:00.000-07:00nice shots. the butterfly picture is nice...shots ...nice shots. the butterfly picture is nice...shots like that can be so challenging!!RChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11340006144797496514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25269877.post-52030387245628910872009-04-26T16:18:00.000-07:002009-04-26T16:18:00.000-07:00Isn't that always the way it goes.....12 camping s...Isn't that always the way it goes.....12 camping sites and wouldn't you know they would pick the one right across from you.

The sights though, stick around much longer.<br /><br />The camping was kind of spur of the moment. I checked out the weather forecast before I went up there and found it was only going to get as low as the 30s. My sleeping bag is for 30 degrees, so I figured as long as it was dry (and it should be in winter) then I'd be fine. I didn't bank on the wind, but once I managed to curl up in the bag and close the flap I was perfectly warm. I probably should have had my mummy bag though. That would have been smarter.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302493174417839271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25269877.post-7005936789252614622009-04-25T16:58:00.000-07:002009-04-25T16:58:00.000-07:00Your pics are great, sounds like you had a very ni...Your pics are great, sounds like you had a very nice outing, sans the noisy campground neighbors.

It was definitely an in-between season. Gorgeous weather too. It's a very ancient forest. I love that I live in an area where those are accessible within a few hours.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302493174417839271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25269877.post-75385718031565000552009-04-19T00:53:00.000-07:002009-04-19T00:53:00.000-07:00You visited a beautiful place Red.
