12 of 12: June 12, 2017 edition… but late.

The 12 of 12 Challenge was created by Chad Darnell and picked up by a number of random bloggers who linked back to him and vice versa. Chad stopped doing the 12 of 12 Challenge in December 2011, but passed the torch to someone who hasn’t kept up with it. I am giving my shout-out to Blobby of Blobby’s Blog as he is the one who initially inspired me to do the Challenge, and he still does it as well.

This would have been my 66th “12 of 12.” A Monday. It started out well enough, and then resulted in me nearly drowning after getting hit by a tree limb and my kayak getting stuck under limbs… with me under it. And then my phone got wet as a result of the dry bag failing, and I lost all my pictures I took that day as well.

I was hoping my phone would dry out and I’d be able to recover the photos from it, but alas, it hasn’t happened… yet.

So instead I humbly offer you pictures from the 19th instead, when we mostly recreated the previous Monday, sans drowning attempt.

These photos were taken on my new iPhone 7 Plus. Still not used to it yet. It’s like holding an iPad.


11:12 AM: Just getting on the Elk river.
11:26 AM: Bird nests under the bridge.
11:51 AM: All that flooding we had in the area did this.
11:57 AM: Mostly fresh. Mostly.
12:06 PM: My best buddy and his girlfriend.
12:24 PM: River necessities.
12:47 PM: The view.
1:21 PM: Out of all these rocks, I find pottery.
2:23 PM: This guy.
2:34 PM: And this guy.
2:38 PM: I need to smile more, apparently…
2:59 PM: More flooding damage.
Baker’s Dozen: 4:26 PM: Someone’s feet were sore from walking on the rocks…

Until next time...

Someone’s too tired to walk.
