Hillside Bear

First, check out the white squirrel.

This is my longest walk of the year, and the most elevation.

"Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin

 

He was just 44 when he died twenty years ago today. It was our first year in Asheville, and I remember hearing the sad news.

Kool & The Gang


This group was one of my favorites.  I saw them in concert at the Dothan Civic Center in the 90s.

In high school, we had a class project where we had to bring a favorite song to play and discuss. Mine was "Cherish" by Kool & The Gang.
