This morning

The last couple of weeks it has been cold on the bike, a persistent northwesterly wind blowing which also means a headwind the entire (uphill) way home. Today would have been fine as there is little wind, but yesterday we had already decided to go for a little walk instead.

Just out the back of our property and around Blacktail. It had been awhile, and it is always a nice hike. Dan brought the new tripod, I took my trusty point-and-shoot.

We found the place well-trashed by cattle here and there. It does make you wonder about the Forest Service giving out grazing permits in a desert. But oh, I forgot, their motto is Land of Any Uses. It takes about 10 years for nature here to restore itself. Hope for rain, and keep those cows off.

Sunrise over Blacktail.

On the backside, Dan taking a shot (see his website).

Em, the Ham.
