The fields look like they were planted in wheat, but it is the wheat that is coming up from last harvest that was not combined due to all the rain...

see our home and Jake and Trisha's home way on the other side.. we will soon be there.. finishing our four mile walk...

now walking south back to the pond...

now when we get to the north end we walk out on 68TH and head west to the first road from the south.

this makes up for any thing missed in walking for 2 1/2 miles now...

about half way North...

heading to our north point...

oh my .. so close...

Can you hear them...??? they fly and swim with ease...

and I think the gander means business.. he came after one of the dogs that is with us...

The pair went straight to work, surrounding me... and honking up a storm...

almost on the water.. what a soft landing to be so large...

looking north east.. we have been caught.. here come the geese patrol....

And now we are heading North... across the pond.. on the other side, you will have to be careful, or you will get your feet wet or muddy...

are you gettting tired? need to rest.. if not we will continue on...

As we now head north.. a buzzard has taken flight.. don't worry, I told him he could not eat me yet... haha...

in the middle way back in the trees is my west point for turn around... you have now walked about 2 miles...

I touch the post top on the right side of this line fence gate... still heading west...

All must be well, as he is gliding to his female waiting on the wheat for him...

I guess all is well as he passed on by... heading for his goose...

As I head west.. I am spotted by a reconisance flight...

over the last three mornings.. I have become a problem to some geese... they now send up one to check me and dogs out... this was the first fly by....

just west of the corner we have to walk through tall dead grass.. to the mowed area....

I touch the top of the post at each turn or mid way point to keep myself honest... and this is the corner post at the mid way point headed west...

I can remember sitting this with my father a very long time ago... over the years the cows ... rounding the corner and water coming from up on the land .. took the dirt away... The post looks as worn as I do .. right.. haha..

Now we are headed up the hill... there is something that sleeps here on this hill side...

There are two places that are all mashed down and one can tell that something big sleeps here over night.. deer? coyotes? cats? We are still headed west...

We now have to cross the creek.. be careful or you will get your feet wet... and watch your head...

now we can cross the creek heading west.. and up the hill... be careful or you will get your feet wet...

Woodpecker Gulch - Condo 2.... did you see woodpecker in the upper left hand corner of last photo? He was a bit camera shy...

Past Woodpecker Gulch... condo number one....

we have now walked 1 3/4miles are you tired yet... ??

this is walking west now toward west point... down the creek...

from the east point walking west to the tree in middle.. tall one then south... before walking west
