Wright's:Lake July 2011

There's sure been a change since last week. Much of the snow has melted, although it still isn't possible to drive to the lake. Hiked down to Silver Creek and then back up to the road on some old, discontinued forest service or logging road and then back up to what looks like a horse trail.

Then we drove for snacks and some time to read and sit in a chair at the big meadow at the crossroads. Lady bugs were flocking everywhere and flying around like tiny orange lights in the sun.

The picture is a big hunk of the stream bank that has fallen into the stream. The bank is covered with flowers and they are completely submerged in the water.
