Ginny led the Hoofers on a hike along the Capulin Peak loop trail while doing various side trips. It was four miles on easy terrain with some great views. Once again I missed the hike as my daughter and husband returned from The Netherlands after a 5-year stint in Europe as Post Docs. And my son and his wife also came down from Colorado Springs so I was involved in a wonderful family reunion. However thanks to Jean and Julianne, and Kathleen we have some nice pictures to post. Looks like everyone had a great time!

Water Break
Bird watchers gather here to watch for special varieties of
birds. Old wooden water collector from Capulin Springs attracts birds.
We saw this near the end of the hike.
