Up the mountain

Winky and most of the gang are going to run up the mountain this morning.  So as usual Winky is busy jumping around getting ready to blast off at eight thirty.  Kadizzle is staying back at camp and may go for a causal walk with Cupcake.  Cupcake said she dreamed up a name for Kadizzle.  Cupcake wants to call him Jellyroll.  Hopefully she can settle on Cheesecake.  Sitting here about a month into the shutdown caused by the child like mentally ill president trying to keep busy. 

The mountain crew is going to try to make it clear to the top.  That end of the trail has become overgrown with brush and they are trying to figure out where it goes.  The other day Kadizzle and Cupcake hiked part way up the Oak Flat Trail.  A woman who looked just like Winky came running down the trail.  It was amazing to see someone run up and down that steep trail, we were stopping to rest about every five minutes.

The skyline in the east is starting to glow. That means the sun is working its way up.  The days are finally getting longer.

Yesterday as Kadizzle was exercising the Yamaha motorcycle, and the ebike he encountered a strange young guy on a very, very small motorbike.  It was a strange sight.  The little 110 CC cycle was pushing a 210 lb guy and huge amount of gear.  Inquiring Kadizzle found out Mr. Cycle had driven the little mini cycle ninety miles form Chandlier.  It took him three days and he camped on the way.  With the shutdown the motorbike man was looking for a place to camp.  Kadizzle showed him to a nice spot on the beach.  It takes all kinds to make the world go round, but it only takes one to shoot you down.
