The Hunt for Orange Butterflies

 I headed up to Sycamore Canyon this morning to look for Monarch butterflies.  It's supposed to be a popular fall habitat for them, but I only saw three on the actual trail.  I spotted about ten more in the parking lot after my two-and-a-half-hour hike.
 I hiked and hiked, searching the skies for butterflies, as the hot sun tried to sap my energy.  As you might expect, it was a real workout for me.  But I'm used to that sort of hard work.
Oh, who am I kidding?!? I barely did any work at all.  Thanks, Sherpa!
