Cachuma Lake...

Today was a beautiful day so we headed off to do a little hiking. We decided to try somewhere we hadn't been yet so we headed off to Cachuma Lake. Overall we weren't impressed with the park. It really did just turn out to be a giant, very crowded, campground with a few small trails. We chose a short trail that was just over 2 1/2 miles long. We saw many birds, a few woodpeckers and a beautiful red tail hawk. The area is so dry from the lack of rain that almost everything that should be green is brown. The lake is also much lower than normal.


Heading back P had to walk in front...someone (P) couldn't seem to control the urge to hit everyone in the back with acorns as we hiked.
