The Solemates

This past weekend we went on a weekend trip near the Mark Twain Wilderness area in SE MO (instead of going to SORUCK, which we really wanted to attend but didnt wanna drive that far for a day and a half). When we got there Friday night around 2300 HRS, it was 14F and really windy. That night we spent the night at a campground and it certainly got down into the single digits. The next morning we kinda bummed around visiting different areas and doing different trails. We also were able to visit both Taum Sauk State Park and Elephant Rocks State Park, both of which are fascinating geological parks if you are ever in the area. Pictures on my yahoo photos page to follow. It was cold, however, never getting above 27F the whole weekend, and a dusting of snow covered the ground here and there.
