The weather was unbelievable. I don't ever recollect an end of July in St. Louis this cool and beautiful, Seventy-five degrees. I was house sitting for my brother Pat and his wife Lynnie, so I took one of their dogs, Juneau, for a hike at Cuivre River State Park, which is only about thirty minutes via Highways 61 and 47 from their house in Wentzville. The first trail we hiked was the 2 mile Blazing Star Trail, which traverses a little forest and then this field of wildflowers. Then we hiked the 3.75 mile Big Sugar Creek Trail. Very satisfying hike--although there was a lot of poison ivy (which I now have) and the trail markers, although much improved over three years ago when I was hiking in winter with Pat, can still be a little confusing.
