IMG 8784  This plant decides to put on a show just before I leave. IMG 8785 IMG 8786 IMG 8788 IMG 8789  I prepped this spot for Koba in case the partition needed to come down to isolate the cab so it could stay cool. He stayed here for like 10 minutes and then moved in between the seats, facing into the back. IMG 8790  Koba's exciting view.
IMG 8791  Traffic was not bad. At most it was 100 in a few places. Temps dropped as we climbed from Kyburz. About 91 on arrival. IMG 8792  It's a pretty lake. IMG 8793 IMG 8794  Frank has been here for a few days and is determined to sleep this one out. IMG 8795  Lilly friend. IMG 8796  Bringing the EZ Up was a GOOD IDEA. Shade for both sides of the van would be even gooder.
IMG 8798  How to cope with the heat. We both used this strategy many times a day. IMG 8800 IMG 8803  Eh. IMG 8812  Big sip. IMG 8816  Koba was a total knucklehead about finding the most fifficult way to get from A to B. IMG 8817  I'll just drop this here for you.
IMG 8818  Water was mid 60s. Not too bad to just jump in. IMG 8819  What's that? IMG 8820 IMG 8822  He was occasionally willing to use the mat this time. IMG 8823  Beer o'clock has arrived. IMG 8824  Fancy.
IMG 8825  Lilly was outcompeting Koba for the ball as usual. IMG 8827 IMG 8831 IMG 8834  Not sure why I am channeling Nicky Hayden here with the smirk. IMG 8835  Ahhh. IMG 8837  The mister is broken.
IMG 8838  Well, there's your problem. IMG 8839  Back in business. IMG 8840  The water droplets were turning Koba into a winter wonderland. IMG 8841  Karl the dog? IMG 8842  Poking stick. IMG 8843  Meat.
IMG 8844  This crew does not mess around. IMG 8845  Yum. IMG 8846 IMG 8848  It cools off quick once the sun goes down. This is huge. IMG 8851  Where we are at. IMG 8852  This is the first star visible every night.
IMG 8853  Twilight went like this. IMG 8855  Then this as the light from the campfire kicked in. IMG 8856  Dark sky was nice. IMG 8858
