Bee vs Black Widow

bee vs Black Widow from Patrick S on Vimeo.

Not much of a story.  I was hiking along with this kid Leadfoot somewhere in VA (I'm pretty sure around Daleville). We heard a buzzing and watched the battle for a little while.  We left and they were still going at it, but I figure the best case scenario for the bee is a draw.  Leadfoot and I got a hotel room that night and he decided to stay an extra day and I heard from him again.  The mysteries of the trail.

And sorry for the crappiness of the video.  I was using a point and shoot camera and was videoing with my pack on.  The focus on that thing sucks.

Maine and such

The trail shown in the video was actually pretty dry as far as things go. At that point we had several days of sunshine and no rain. You can imagine how wet things were a week earlier.

I decided to throw a few extra photos of Maine up here as well.  I'll get around to putting some newer trips up here soon enough, but these were already on the computer.  I'm still walking around places.
