The hare built up a lead and …

… decided to take a nap.

But the hare’s last leap was just too late, for the tortoise had beaten him to the winning post. Poor hare! Tired and in disgrace, he slumped down beside the tortoise who was silently smiling at him.

It’s not too late to sign up for this year’s Monster Dash to benefit the Ashland School’s Foundation. Race day this year is October 26.

Paulina Plunge Tour waterfall

A couple years ago we went camping with friends in Bend this time of year. We went on the Paulina Plunge Tour, and this was the view from the top of one of the waterfalls we encountered on the bike tour.
