One Fish, Two Fish, Black Fish, Blue Fish

We went adventuring at Camp Sherman today and were intending to go for a walk along the Metolius with Scott Blau.

The kiddos got antsy, so we headed up the road a bit to the Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery.
I did not know there were such a thing as blue trout! Apparently they are a the result of a genetic mutation similar to albinoism. Learn something new every day...

Next we headed to the Head of the Metolius...the place where geology has resulted in the birth of this river. It's a little overgrown these days...

Chippy the Chipmunk was patrolling the park and soliciting up close for donations.
