Ida’s
Notebook
Ida Risser
My husband enjoys the
woods. Now ourown acres of
woodland hold no en
chantment for him but the
mountains that might hold
deer do. '
He has wanted to explore
some, new bunting ground
and finally picked a day
when I felt that I was too
busy to go along. However,
as I knew he wouldn’t be
happy until he went, we
packed a lunch and set off
for a few hours.
He actually helped pack
lunch, which is unusual for
him, so that I could prepare
some cucumbers for
pickling. Luckily our two
teenagers were free to ac
company us and so we had a
short swim in the pool at
Little Buffalo State Park
after we ate our picmc under
a tree that was dropping tiny
caterpillars on us.
While we swam, Allen
spent his time using his
binoculars to scan the
nearby mountains and lake
with its fishermen..
Then we drove deep into
the mountains on unpaved
and bumpy roads. Som£ of
them were marked “dsad
end” but that didn’t keep us
from trying them. I spied a
box hanging from a limb
which my family told me
was a milk carton but I
disagreed. So, we in
vestigated and found it to be
the gypsy moth trap that I
suggested it was when I first
saw it.
There were several look
out points high in the

mountains which looked out
over Doubling Gap. We
stopped to take pictures and
share a snack.
Even though we kept our
eyes open, we did not see one
deer on this trip. All we saw
was a mouse and a grouse.
(My Grandma Landis would
have said, “That is true
because it rhymes.”) Before
we got on the turnpike to
return home, we saw fields
of com which were very
short and not developed due
to lade of moisture.
When I got home my one
half bushel of beans was still
waiting in the refrigerator to
be frozen and the baskets of
peaches had not run away
either. So it is back to the
“old grind” as they say.
