Puzzle took advantage of the spring sunshine to catch a little nap with gal pal Spirit.
No clouds are on display in this image, but if a cloud crossed the sun, the wind kept things on the chilly side.
Wildflowers are blooming in some southern places (thanks, Mom, for the pic of bluebonnets in Texas!), but we’re still quite a bit behind that kind of spring display. 🙂
This …
and this …
led to a little of this yesterday afternoon. 🙂 Note the rain in the background. We did get a little dampness.
Way out yonder, wild horses graze. Our most recent little weather system brought some snow to the higher places above the east-southeast side of the basin. But the waves of infrequent, light rain we got a few days ago is all we’ve had here in the lower elevations. What’s that all about? The dry lands could use some more moisture.
Skywalker the hefty looks back at a band that rebuffed his advances. He appears to be disappointed that they’re practicing distancing-from-bachelors of at least 60 feet.
Puzzle and Spirit were a sight for sore eyes under mostly cloudy skies a couple of days ago. Despite intermittent waves of light rain (OK, sprinkles, really), I was able to get out to see them in a place with a pretty nice background.
Happy spring. 🙂
Pretty Terra watches the rest of the band while I watch her in lovely late light.
Just like that, with the time change, the days are longer. They’ve been getting longer, of course, but now they’re longer and LATER. More time to enjoy the beauty. 🙂
Hayden isn’t always in the mood to pose handsomely for the folks back home. 🙂
Maybe he, like the rest of us, was still nursing a grudge against Ma Nature, who did NOT deliver moisture to us Sunday. I mean, it’s pretty glorious out there, but it’s dry. So dry.
All our world seems painted in shades of buckskin these days – more brown, brown, brown than gold, gold, gold. It’s late, late winter, it’s a smidge too early for true spring (though temperatures and birds and bees say it’s spring).
It’s also the scruffy, rough, scraggly time when the horses are getting ready to shed their own winter wear and become sleek and spring-shiny again. And we’re waiting on green bits, which adds the vitamins to the winter diet. We’re all tired of the winter diet.
A boy I love in a place I love.
Miss Reya poses oh, so prettily in front of McKenna Peak and Temple Butte. … And in the next moment, she turned away to graze. It’s hard to catch that girl posing. 🙂
