Hiking in a winter wonderland

Now that Spring is here, I need to dedicate more of my Sunday mornings to walks and hikes that are further from home. I can devote a couple of hours on weekdays to nearby stuff, but adding an extra hour each way adds up to too much. All the research has been done for me, so all I have to do is look around on the map and see what looks nice. I chose Heather Lake yesterday, and set out nice and early.

How I find stuff to watch

The dog in The Boy Who Could Fly is the same dog that's in Nightmare on Elm Street 4 and The Hidden. And a couple of other movies I've never heard of, including Two Moon Junction, where Sherilyn Fenn plays a "young Southern débutante temporarily abandons her posh lifestyle and upcoming, semi-arranged marriage to have a lustful and erotic fling with a rugged drifter who works at a local carnival." I need to see this. Neat what you can find when you look up animals on imdb.
