I love hiking as well but if the weather is bit too hot it's a mess, though I enjoy it if I get an opportunity to hike in different terrains.

Basically the kangaroo is taller, stronger and coloured in reddish browns or gray. <br />I'm always at the back of the pack as I savour my surroundings.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04051160693725705930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-385127495391454105.post-78457376413057635662021-06-12T14:05:59.008-07:002021-06-12T14:05:59.008-07:00Thank you Barb, the date has been amended, May.
Th...Thank you Barb, the date has been amended, May.<br />The climb was rated 'difficult' and I think that is a better descriptor than 'hard'. It was a glorious winter's day to take the challenge. I would worry more about a bear or moose meeting than a snake encounter. Also it is our 'winter' so they are supposedly in hibernation. This climb would be far too hot for me in summer.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04051160693725705930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-385127495391454105.post-30674075123570075392021-06-12T13:53:46.380-07:002021-06-12T13:53:46.380-07:00Helen, I was confused at the June 25th date!

I love the slender Grass Tree and so do the bees.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04984171407726520584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-385127495391454105.post-35244942640004562482021-06-12T04:38:16.584-07:002021-06-12T04:38:16.584-07:00Loved the bird sounds.

I wouldn’t be able to distinguish them from kangaroos I’m afraid. And that vegetation is so interesting. I would take forever to examine each item.<br /><br />Thanks for taking us along.Marie Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03882722634065183364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-385127495391454105.post-56411796540948713232021-06-11T23:52:40.412-07:002021-06-11T23:52:40.412-07:00You and your companions are truly amazing.You and your companions are truly amazing.Bill https://www.blogger.com/profile/04779863708462822356noreply@blogger.com
