I had to get out today and walk some of that halloween party beer off from last night !!!

It started to rain so while I looked for a sheltered site, Maisy was looking at something else.....


Man she had the hots for this guy and soon wandered off leaving me behind.....


I soon found a nice spot and this where I met my little buddy, Nobby the newt. He said I could share his log as long as I showed him how to make a fire !


This sounded a fair deal so I got out my knife and got to work.....


I made some tiny fatwood curls.....


Nobby checked out my fire steel....


A few strikes later we had fire !


Maisy came back quite upset because her new boyfriend had been called away.....


I told her to take a swim to take her mind off him !


After a pleasant rest I packed my kit back up and said goodbye to Nobby before heading back !

Here are a few more pics from the hike...

Great pic's Pitman and thanks for sharing. How is the Tops knife working out?

What a beautiful place! Awesome pictures, I really like the colors of all the fallen leaves and the newt.

Beautiful country Pit, thanks for sharing, I love checking out your pictures, everytime it makes me want to pack up and hit the hills.

Man, you got a knack for photography. Your subject matter is wild. Reminds me of the right decision I made to move out into the woods...
