So Christmas day Sunday, but we don't do Christmas. And a day off Monday. No real plans until Sunday evening for Channukah. My toe finally feels well enough for a hike. Blodgett Peak has been calling to me for months - especially since I learned there was a geocache on top. So I get up a bit early - early for a day off from work - and head out for a hike. I don't know how far I'll get - but I want to at least get to the top of Blodgett Peak. I've got about 8 geocaches I can try for, depending on how I do. A couple are up in Pike National Forrest, past Blodgett Peak. It is slower going than I expected. I spend more time than I wanted looking for the first 4 geocaches - I only found 2 of them. The trail is Icy and muddy. It is not a great trail - it is not well prepared like the trail going up Pikes Peak. It is very easy to lose the trail - subtle paths seem to go off in many directions. In many places, the trail seems to go up very steep, loose gravel. Step

Seeing as I spent a great majority of my childhood in bowling alleys tagging along with my parents as they competed in various leagues all over Southern California, I would have loved to have come across a smoke free facility! Enclosed spaces blue with second hand smoke was not my favorite places to be. As long as the place had an arcade, I was a happy girl.

In Monument - 3 minutes off the highway.
Technically it isn't non-smoking all the time. It is non-smoking during daytime hours in the main area (bar has smoking all the time) and I understand that smoking is only allowed behind the wall, so there is little 'old smoke' smell left in the bowling area. It seemed rather clean. Althoug they wouldn't let us eat our own food (candy).
