Minature Blue Iris ..................................................................................................?????

Camp in woods next to trail with Spirit. Nice fire - had tortillas and 96. Woke with Mr Woodpecker - pecking away - other birds singing & chirping. Very Pretty! We know it is a sunny day & a beautiful day for hike. 1st sunshine in a week (I think). Pretty level today - stayed on ridge with up/down hike - like a roller coaster. Saw some small wild Iris and other wild flowers, along with a bunny & deer.

Patches uses his $20 hammock to relax and read, while Chipmunk & Crazy Lady prepares lunch.
