Wednesday, December 12, 2007 - Foscue Creek Park, Demopolis AL

In the woods, Foscue Creek Park, Demopolis AL, December 13, 2007

No boat traffic, except for a fisherman, casting for catfish I guess, and a muskrat resting on the opposite point (where the great blue heron was yesterday morning). No fog either. Today is shaping up to a sunny day in the seventies. We like it. Later I might take a walk along the trails down at the lower pool below the lock. Gotta go, my oatmeal is ready.
