all the rain and cool spell. This 7 day rain around here has created that " suctioin " again around those rocks. AND it is still very, very muddy and clayee < word ? > on these roads. I would hit that scenic mill drive road or advertised as that who ever generals trail main road through the Flint Hills. I don't remember if it is paved going west from hyway 4 from Topeka but it is on the south fork when you leave Alma. I know you hit north of I70 but when you go south do you get off on 99 to Alma or 4 at west Topeka and then west ? Volland : do you know the history of what made that a ghost town back in the late 1800dreds and again in the early 1900dreds ? There is still some living proof for miles off of several roads. Many people has no clue as to the reason and the biggest event of the nature of why in the history of Kansas. YOU DO know collared Hill it seems. Tell these folks how far you can walk and walk and walk in that place and how you can top a hill and see your vehicle that you left miles away ! LOL !

I heard of collardlizard hill, I think its what your talking about. I never have found it, but I still look. Wall lizards are out like crazy right now, and I did see a Green Lacerta. A rare find! Skinks are all over the place. I actually know the two ladies that live in the two houses in Volland, I used to treat their lawns for weeds and fertilizer every year. Tin is good for rats and ringnecks and garters, but no milks or emories or kings for me except a select few. I just met a guy that said he has snakes in his well every winter, and last year there was a albino garter in there. im not sure how true it is, but we"ll see if he comes through. Any clues on where to start this weekend? If not, Im off to the usual areas. Turtles are starting to move again, I have been rescuing them like crazy, at least 4 or 5 a day.
