So, my job interview went okay. They said I should hear back in a few days. I guess I need to fill out my license application and get that in the mail as I can't start working without a license!
K...Back to camping pictures, this is the last batch. Some are from a hike we went on and some are sort of general camping pictures.
We went on a 3ish+ mile hike when camping. We had a goal of making it to see a particular part of the forest that our hiking brochure boasted was rare in Vermont as it has sedge and looked like a savannah. However, we did not make it that far on the hike.
We passes a lovely tiny waterfall.
And came across Beaver Meadow.
We also got eaten alive by mosquitoes (even though we had bug sprayed). Nature Boy and I both fell as the trails were slippery from our constant rain. (I am still sporting a pretty big bruise on my shin from the fall!) It was not a banner hike...I would say, if not for the mosquitoes, it would have been a good outing. It would be a lovely hike to do in the fall!
My other few pictures are of camping randomness...like the practically tame squirrels and chipmunks at our campsite.
And this really pretty flower we saw a lot of down there, but I have never seen growing up here.
That pretty much wraps up our camping trip! We had a lovely time and I look forward to going back to that campground again!

I hope you get the job - got my fingers crossed for you!
That chipmunk photo is *adorable* too!
That plant - I have some in my driveway. It produces berries that look alluringly similar to red rasberries, though far more shallow, like a flat domed button. I thought the flower plant was called "rose mallow", but I just googled it, and that seems to be a term for a hibiscus. Interestingly though, there is a relative called a marsh mallow - which actually grows in marshes and was the source of the original marshmallow. That would be a fun thing to try to recreate - and I bet they didn't use gelatin either. eew. Good luck IDing it, in any case!
