Default O Lord I'm stuck in Folsom again.

The lake is filling up really fast. Looks like the Rat Fink is treading water.

Speaking of treading water, I did a bit of dirt riding out at Granite bay
and man was that fun. Nothing serious (I am over 60), but it really
felt grate to open the throttle wide open and shoot a rooster tail of
sand out the back end.
I came up to this mud hole and immediately thought of Rod and knew he would
probably go right through it, but it just looked to damned slippery for me.



And leaving the lake, I spotted my first rattler, but by the time I could
get my camera turned on that bugger was gone.
I suspect he will be lunch for this guy. Lots of small game all over Granite Bay.

Yes, plenty of eye candy too. Just no pictures for proof.

I should have known better than to mention the eye candy with no proof. Sigh.
I took tKT out for a stroll today. Found something new in my neighborhood
that I didn't know was there. Still don't know what it is, but has cats all over it.

Then, I took the Rat out in search of a county marker. I don't believe I have
these in my collection. I do have these counties, but not from this local.

The Sutter Butte's can be seen if you look really close, just below and in front of the county marker.

And No, toker, I didn't cross the new bypass. It's old hat now days.

Almost the same angle as the very first picture in this thread.

No way. I have to draw the line somewhere and for me it's mud, I like my "T" to much to give it a bath in mud. Water no problem, mud no way.

ROD
p.s. it's nice to see the lake so full again.
