Conditions: Temp. 102, sunny, extremely hot, no clouds. I arrived at the parking lot at 5:51 p.m., reached the bridge 6:10 p.m. and entered the site 6:15 p.m. I left the site approximately 7:25 p.m. heading back to the parking lot. I took my bike this trip. Taking the bike, of course, helps give me more time at the site. I was planning on biking to the pipeline-right-of-way (approx. 2 miles) after my visit to site 1B. I was going to spend time using binoculars to observe along the tree lines for activity. I never made it. What I observed on entering site 1B totally FLOORED, SHOCKED, and STUNNED me. I had no thought of seeing the following: When one enters the site from a opening in the tree line, approximately 75'-100' in is a group (9 or 10) of old, concrete drainage pipes. They have been there a long time. The pipes are approximately 4'-5' in length and with a height of approximately 30″-36″.1 pipe is on top of 2 horizonally. I use the top pipe to store items. I have the food bucket that had been torn off bucket tree #2 in the pipe with a small back pack inside. I keep trash bags in the backpack. I use the trash bags to clean up all the food wrappers left on the site plus remove other trash found. I also keep a military map case with various colored spray paints (7) for different experiments I'm conducting. I entered the opening and the sunlight was bright behind me and bright openings through the trees. As I was walking toward the pipes, I whistled my entry tune and and called out that I'm here.
Last fall, I spray painted the five tires: red, royal blue, white and 2 shades of yellow. Since then, the paint started to wear off. Before my last visit, I decided to buy more paint and repaint the tires. I also wanted to paint all the rocks I brought to the site.
Could one or more of the 'Forest People' been observing my painting activities and felt they could convey something to me??
I need to share about the rest of the time on site:
The white rock, I left under the 'arch-doorway' horizontal limb, was turned over exposing the bottom side which I did not paint last time.
The 2 sweet treats on the green Frisbee have been taken. The 2 rocks (larger one, small yellow one) and the quarter remain on the Frisbee.
The fried Apple pie empty box is at the bottom of the tree.
The fried Cherry pie empty box from the Frisbee is near bucket tree #1.
When I took paints from the map case to finish this days painting, I was pranked. All the lids are the colors for the cans of paint. I began painting the bottom of the white rock which had been turned over. Green paint was coming out of the can. The white lid was on the green paint. I checked all the cans. The green lid was on the white paint. I was tricked. They were probably having a good chuckle when I began painting the white rock green.
More of my activities:
I added 1 package of mini-snickers bars sweet treats and 2 plastic containers: one containing blackberries and the other strawberries. I put the 2 rocks and quarter on top of the snickers package.
I re-stocked food bucket #1.
I dumped a pile of deer corn and put out 4 ears of corn, 2 apples and 1 pear at the same spot at the fringe of the site.
I added the large royal blue, painted rock back into food bucket #1. It will remain until removed.
I added a hub cap on the cord hanging on food bucket #1. I also painted it royal blue.
I chained 2 tires to a small bushy tree.
The circle rocks, I complete painting the bottoms.
I moved the white kettle bell onto the 3 tires stack.
I moved the water container next to the balls corral.
I removed the ground arrow pointer limbs.
I took a large tool bag with exterior small pouches and hanged it from added 2″x4″s. I added sweet treats in the exterior pouches and in the bag added a bag of peanuts, a honey bun, a small mirror, and a grooming comb, both as gifts. To the sweet treat pouches off the ground measures 5'-3″.
I added 1 bag of peanuts to the bucket in the top concrete pipe. It is on top of the backpack in the bucket.
