Weather was anticipated to be cold, but it turned out to be fine. Not many
species, but beautiful blue skies and excellent views at Rural Retreat and
from Whitetop. If you attempted to meet up with us and discovered that
there is no Conoco at Exit 14, I apologize. I will make sure in the future
that the field trip meeting locations exist.
