I exagerate (a little) - again. Not about the sunscreen though. The weather was beautiful. The sun was out. Peter and I both got burned, and cooked in the sun. We won't complain - crystals are way easier to find with the sun shining on them. We got filthy dirty, covered in dust, gritty and grimy but we scored some beauties!
We did see two families of black bears. Oh my gosh! It was amazing! The first family was eating grass or twigs or just smelling the flowers - it was hard to tell at the distance we were at. They were just off the side of the highway and drawing quite a big crowd of passer bys. The second set were just a few kilometers further up the road.
We also hiked Shannon Falls, Brandywine falls (no snow this time!), We hiked around Whytecliff Park and took a tour of Horseshoe village. That man knows how to squeeze more into a day than most people squeeze into a week! Of course - we didn't get home until nearly 11:00.
About 11:35 I said, "Oh Peter - we forgot to go see Cindy the Goatherder and her goats!" I'm guessing she's asleep by now. He thinks we might be able to swing by in the morning on my way out of town.
