There are a few trails to walk at Tugman and, since walking is one of our favorite things and trails are another, we’ve been exploring.
Things continue to spring and green in these parts.
There’s a lot of blooming going on.
So, we’ve got plenty of flowery shots.
The trails are very nice. They are similar to the ones we had at our last stop only they gain a bit in elevation now and then. Oh, and they skirt the lake.
It’s purdy.
Of course, we’ve seen many of the same newts and slugs that our last park had. So, we won’t bore you with too much photo familiarity.
We will however show you these.
A Speckled Banana Slug.
Just hanging around.
On the ground cruising in a fancy ride.
You’ve got to be constantly on alert for wildlife in these parts.
Especially the stealthy, statuesque and slightly apathetic kind!
This fungi looks a bit like bacon.
This one had some pretty neat water droplets reflecting on the underside.
Camping is pretty quiet in these parts right now so we’ve been put in charge of fern maintenance here in the park. While trimming one day, Darlene discovered this…
Check out that body coloring! She named him Fire Agate.
He was a spunky little guy who also did a great impression of playing dead!
Although we are closer to town than we have ever been (two miles) it is doubtful that we will find ourselves there very often. We much prefer a trip through nature over a trip to town. So, in the interest of our return to limited internet service, we’ll continue with some photos of the fog that rolled in the other day. It created a mysterious and yet very peaceful vibe around the lake.
Goodbye, for now.
