Deeper into the In-Between Land

We saw our friend across the river who shows up in his trailer this time every year. It is quiet out there. One year we could hear the pages turning in his book that he was reading while sitting outside. He used to have a terrible cough but we didn't hear it on this day.

The Canyon

I told Teresa that years ago Jax and I hiked back into and both got a strange feeling when we entered. We looked at each other at the same time and we exited the canyon but looking over our shoulder and back the whole way out. Something was in there and it didn't like us. When we got outside the canyon Jax and I sat down for 30 minutes or so looking into the canyon trying to find what had spooked us. I told Teresa we were taking a break from the Land of In-Between and did she want to go. She did.

We found a canyon that was similar but didn't have the feeling to it. The one we first found had a Christmas like tree in front of it as did the original one we found. I don't think that was the canyon but Teresa said Jax kept staring into it. We'll go back soon and do it again plus the five or six we didn't have time to do.

Three Days in the In-Between Land

Jax and I are getting a pretty good lay of the land.

On the first day I tried to climb something I thought was going to be ok but got stranded about half way up and lost my foothold. I hung on quite awhile trying to figure out a way back down. I got so tired my right hand was shaking all over the place completely exhaused. I let go and grabbed another rock on the way down and it held. However I'd thrown my gloves up the slope ahead of me and that's where they stayed.

Jax and I went back the next day and got above my gloves but couldn't get down to them. Teresa went with us the third day and she was able to get up to the gloves and retrieve them.

Jax and I swung by the main house on the way back and looking back to where we had been hiking all day saw 16 big horn sheep grazing the In-Brween Land.
