I feel like that’s probably what the guy hiking down the path behind me this afternoon must have been thinking. I was hiking home from the office down at the hatchery after deciding to call into the afternoon-long call from home, and on the steep hill I stopped to pull out the camera for a few up-close-and-personal photos of a big banana slug on the path.
As I took the photos I heard a crunching noise behind me and looked up to see another local, who I recognized, coming down the trail with his dog…slowly…obviously trying to not startle the weirdo crouching, facing downhill, in the middle of a steep trail…nose to nose…. with a slug…..
