Mt. Helena Ridge(MHR) Trail - 15th of May, Saturday
Mike is in Michigan so I went hiking with friends. I walked over to their place & we started the hike, up Daisy Hill at 9:00 & then on the trail below parking lot, up to the Old Planted Trees trail, caught the Dump Out Gulch trail, then onto Hanging Draw Trail & over to McCulvey Trail & then to the left up another trail to the MHR Trail. Took us about 4 hours total. We stopped about 11:30 for lunch. Lots of different kinds of flowers but not too many of each kind. Nice day, around 60 & slightly windy. Great for hiking. 8.7 on my ped for the walk to their place & the hike.

Hauser to Beavercreek - 16 of May, Sunday
A friend & I hiked from the dam to Beavercreek this morning at 8:00. Got home around 11:30. Nice day, around 60 with light clouds. Suppose to get into the 80’s today. Saw some eagles, pelicans, cormorants & ducks. Something got killed on a rock along the route, looked like a birds had eaten something small like a mouse or chipmunk. This is around a 4 miles round-trip hike along the Missouri River.

Helena Holding Reservoir Mikes Back - 22nd of May, Friday
We canoed at the Reservoir this morning from 8:30 to about 10:15. It is full. Eagles, marsh hawk, red-wing hawks, grebes (western & redneck), cormorants, blue herons in the rookery, geese, coots, teal & some other ones we could not identify. Clear morning, beautiful with just a slight breeze. Nice canoe.
Note: I've also been working in the yard, clearing last years leaves, edging, planting, weeding & enjoying the yard. Update for the Desert Trip is still in the works.
