We had diner at Lisa's home.  She had a lot of amazing art; this one Joan and I were curious about.  Was an actual fish used as an ink stamp?

July 19 - Skyscraper Peak Hike

 

Our climb up Skyscraper Peak had the best weather of all of our hikes.  Although fog rolled in and out, we were able to shed our outer layers near the top.  While this climb doesn't gain as much altitude as Hatch Peak on the other side of the Willow Fishhook Road, it requires much hands on and there's quite a bit of loose gravel and rock.  As a result, this loose trail has much less traffic.

 

In the evening we visited Tim Mckittrick and had dinner with his lovely wife Heather.  Tim is still fixing and racing motorcycles and is as interesting and creative as ever.
