Big Ass Year Stumbles Along

It was Rayetta's turn to accompany Crumby on his Big Ass Year.  Good thing too.  Because Crumby feel twice on the slippery rocks or whatnot.   How funny was that?  Nothing much funnier than an elderly person taking a tumble. 

Yes.  The substate we are presently discussing features lots of grade change.  So in those situations, Crumby needs to be accompanied by a responsible party in case he needs picking up and dusting off. 

Crumby survived the hike with only minor sprains, bruises and abrasions.  Plus, having Rayetta along meant we recorded a lifer butterfly for Rayetta's Butterflies.  Here that is;  a lovely Texas powdered skipper.  Possibly common in these parts, this skipper has long eluded us until now. 



Meantime,  Crumby heard three new birds for the Big Ass Year, including a GCW or two.  Progress.
