Morning Fog

Color is starting to return to Bogey Woods.  The swamp is slowly drying out and we can get back in there and nose around a little.  Lots of spiderwebs across the trails since no one has been back in the woods for several months.

Was able to get up to the hideout and poke around a little.  It needs lots of work before we can use it again.  The basic structure survived the flood, but, lots of pieces floated off.  Once it dries out a little more, I will start reconstruction.

Ran into another guy who has been walking these trails for years and he told me he saw a Mink the other evening.  He says he has seen several over the years along the creeks and in the swamp.  I saw something "mink-like" crossing Meramec Bottom Road a couple of weeks ago, but, only caught a quick glance.  At the time I thought maybe it was a cat.  Now, I'm not so sure.
