Headed to the Ranch with Matt and Jamie, our good friends...
Drove over, arrived maybe around 7pm?
Went for a quick Ranger ride to the Culdesac, up the ridge, the cabin, then down to the corral.
At the corral it started raining, but the sun was shining through, it was quite a sight. Of course I didn't have my camera, so I just had to enjoy it while it lasted.
Went back and had some Trader Joes pizza and just relaxed.
Sunday:
Woke up, drove to the ridge on the other side.
Circled around, past the meadow, etc, then crossed to the other side and headed back to the house near the cul-de-sac.
Went for a quick ride down to the pond with the girls on the quad, and guys on the motorcycle. We rode the bottom loop and then headed back to the front gate.
The girls went back to make lunch and we headed out on a quick guys ride.
We basically circled the whole ranch with the go pro video mounted to my helmet.
We got back, had lunch.
We then shot guns down at the shooting 'range' below the bridge behind the house. Fun to shoot the 22, 9mm pistol, and a .270.
We then went up to the cabin and shot trap (clay pigeons) with the shotguns.
We came in and had dinner, some chicken, risotto, sausages, etc.
Monday:
Me and Matt checked the game camera across the road down at the watering trough. No pictures.
Matt and Jamie had to depart, they left fairly early.
Adele and I packed up and we drove the truck down to Redinger Lake. It was fun to explore around.
We then drove to Angel Falls at Bass Lake and hiked up the falls.
We walked around downtown Bass Lake at the shops a little bit and checked out the lake.
We got back and had some lunch.
We went for a ranger ride towards the bottom on the normal loop.
We got back, I tried to fish below the bridge, not a single nibble, not sure if there are fish still in there?
We started to clean up and put things away, had some lasagna for dinner, went to bed.
Tuesday:
Awoke, loaded the truck
