Hike 20 miles in a day? Done.

Who'd have thought it would be as smooth an operation as it was? We started at 6:30am with the sunrise, lunched in Forestville at noon for an hour and completed 20 miles by 3:30pm. FAST! Weather cooperated, trail was easy-peasy and very interesting (did I say flat?) and those were awesome burgers at lunch! This will earn the Hiking Merit Badge for some.

Westley's Eagle Project is IN THE BAG

Over the weekend we completed another stellar Eagle Project. The Sonoma County Wildlife Rescue now has electrical conduit installed in underground trenches from the house/main building down to junction boxes at two areas: the Mountain Lion Enclosure and another at the FUTURE Otter Pond!. This will allow pumps, lights and heaters to easily be added.
