Aren’t these little dragons the coolest?? They always look so grumpy, which is hard to understand, given the awesomeness where they live!
Horns of the coolest kind

October in July
20 07 2017My mom’s 70th (!) birthday is in October.
Because she and my dad – and my uncle (her little brother) and cousin – are visiting now (from Texas and from California, respectively), we decided to celebrate early. … Today, in fact!
Their visit will be celebrated with horses and family and friends and love. And we’ll have a big birthday in July!

Awash in beauty
18 07 2017Storm’s band is just below the rise where he’s standing, and he’s looking back at a nearby band being followed by a bachelor.
Really, it’s impossible to describe such feelings of beauty- and peace-in-the-moment. It was a magical evening of wild horses and wild places and wild beauty and such blazing, stunning contentment. And it’s available to everyone because these are OUR wild horses and OUR wild beautiful places; OUR public lands.

Chasing ‘wabbits
17 07 2017Would you believe that Reya took off in pursuit of a rabbit?
Who needs cows to wrangle when you have jackrabbits?!
(Seriously. The horses alerted, and I caught sight of it hopping off just before the horses took off at a gallop, heading straight for it. They didn’t go far, and no rabbits were hurt during the pursuit. :))

Cliff walker
16 07 2017Seven walks a trail down to Spring Creek, which wasn’t flowing … but would run – just a little bit – a couple of days after this photo was taken.
Why did Seven walk the cliff to cross the creek?
To visit the bands on the other side, of course! 🙂

We still have gnats.
In case you wondered. 🙂
Of course, the beauty is worth the beasts!

Big country

Finally, wet stuff
12 07 2017In the illustration above, you can see heavy rain directly smack dab right on top of Spring Creek Basin. The long yellow-red blob in the middle of the screen covers the far eastern part of the basin (and more). 🙂
This is the first honest-to-goodness RAIN in 53 days.
It was pretty awesome. 🙂 It’s a huge relief.
