...the ten mile hike...

...The Boy Scouts are working on their Hiking Merit Badge...

...so they set off on the first of 5 Ten Mile Hikes...

...it was a gorgeous afternoon - with a light breeze - as we stopped in the shade (very few trees on this route) - for a little snack and a brief rest...

...the halfway point - and where we turned to retrace our path - called for another short break and some rock throwing...

...on the way back...notice the ever-lengthening shadows...

...as we hiked back into town in the twighlight - that's the water treatment plant in the distance...

...the full moon was rising and it was after 10:00 o'clock...
