dog days of summer

Hiking metro-Atlanta during July and August is crazy.  That's why I only do it once to show newbies how un-fun it is.  Several weeks ago I went to Jones Bridge (Hike #8 in my book) with Valina because it's a trail that is mostly along water.  If we were close enough to the water, there was a bit of breeze.  When we got away from the water, the sweltering heat was miserable.  If I go hiking any this month, it will be way up high in the mountains. 


a lot of ducks
