Had a pretty good day today, have to say so myself! Started out with my usual hike up the mountainside with the puppies. It was a beautiful cool cloudy morning portending the rainy day we have had. The forest is beautiful this year, very green, almost like the rain forest of the Great Northwest only … Continue reading The Art of Walking Away
Still working on my captures of the herd of burros I joined wandering through Cripple Creek the other day. Lucky for me they settled in on a grassy field in the middle of town where I cold get some nice portraits of them without a lot of obstruction in the background. Still feeling some warm … Continue reading Pretty Burros
Definitely a wild ass day in Cripple Creek! lol... well technically it was a wild Equus asinus day in the old west gambling and gold mining town. Turns out the latest house I was trying to buy down there is back up for grabs... it went under contract out from under me but is back … Continue reading Wild Ass Day
One of those memories from one year ago popped onto my Facebook today, it was a great memory of a great day, breakfast with my beloved cousin whom I hadn't seen for too many years to even count. However the good part of that day was overshadowed by the memory of the rest of the … Continue reading Turning Point
Got some good hiking in this morning, now working on staying ahead of the curve by getting some more winter pictures done. Have to say, these images of our Mount Elbert winter hike in January of 2016 have to be some of the most memorable shots I have ever taken. It was a beautiful morning … Continue reading Rocky Mountain Winter
Just when I thought I had found the superhighway to the high peaks of the Ute Pass northern ridge, I find myself thwarted by a gate and a no trespassing sign 😦 I finally got an early enough start in the cool of the day to really take a run at that trail with the … Continue reading The Dilemma
After the possibilities I discovered yesterday in my new trails paradise I was a bit more eager to get in the truck and get back up there today. I didn't realize how hiking the same exact trail every day for eight years had become complete drudgery. I never even liked that part of the trail, … Continue reading Wings of Eagles
Amazing end to an amazing day, fascinating how things turn out sometimes... but I'll get to that later. The day started out great when I decided to explore a new trailhead that the troll doesn't know about and I found a magnificent parking lot, an open space park and a whole network of trails, including … Continue reading Amazing Day
Met some new friends this morning... As I was striding along through the woods I felt eyes upon me and stopped to look around. In the distance I spotted the onlooker, a little fawn mule deer curiously peering out from the wildflowers. I didn't want to scare the little fellow so I didn't approach, just … Continue reading New Furry Friends
Wasn't sure I was going to make it out this morning... I don't know, maybe it's the damp weather, or maybe just too many hours on the loading docks this week, but when I awoke this morning it felt like a bomb had exploded inside my body. Got up, turned on the coffee pot and … Continue reading Rough Start
