Pre-Thanksgiving tromp in the woods

Joe and I decided after church to head down to Mt. Magazine for a pre-Turkey day hike. We hiked the North Rim up to the Lodge restaurant. After lunch we went down the mountain and took the shorter way back. Only about 5 1/2 miles today:-(
I love my tripod for making pictures of both of us.


Out in back of the Lodge. What a wonderful view of the valley below.

Just a cool bug on our court yard wall.
One of the family of hawks that fly over our yard all the time.

Nov. Hike at Robbers Cave in Oklahoma

A Sunday hike to Robbers Cave in Eastern Oklahoma.
Tammy and Dennis on top of the Devils Slide area. Solid rocks with pine trees growing like it was very fertile dirt!
Joe and Dennis climbing a narrow path that went up to a blocked area.
The four of us on the dam of the "Lost Lake" I have 10 seconds to get back with the group after setting the camera up! Hard to run fast on really rocky areas.
Lunch beside "Cat tail Pond"
Near the mouth of the main cave.
On the trail near Robbers Cave.
Beautiful purple berries.
