There were nine of us to run down Payson Canyon this morning. Carolyn and I were the only girls. When we got dropped off up on the mountain Carolyn and I started walking in the dark toward the "little girl's trees" while the guys walked over to the "little boy's trees". As we were walking over there we could see two eyes reflecting straight at us from our headlights. We looked for a minute and wondered if it were eyes or just a reflection on a sign or pole...and then we heard the grunt/snort! They were eyes and they were conected to something that did not want us looking or going their way! We didn't wait around long enough to find out what kind of eyes they were...we just ran back and was very happy the van had not left yet and we were in the van! The guys were brave and went over to investigate....they got a kick out of it when they got over and found.....a cow....not a bear like we had imagined! I'm pretty sure we will not live that one down. But to tell you the truth I am mighty glad it was a cow and not a bear!
Other than that is was just a glorious run down a beautiful mountain on an amazingly beautiful, starlit morning! LOVE IT!
