The weather was lovely for a nap. There was a skiff of snow in the morning, but it didn’t last long.

Colorado-style spring
28 03 2020
Shadow the always feisty cavorts through the weird, random, wild, crazy and WONDERFUL snow squall we got yesterday in Spring Creek Basin. It didn’t last, and it didn’t stick (here – though it did, ever-so-briefly – lower in Disappointment Valley), but it brought us just a skosh of moisture, and we have to be grateful for every little smidge we get.
Thanks to all who crossed fingers, thumbs and toes, said prayers and danced jigs for us to get moisture!

Pretty Winona on a pretty day in Spring Creek Basin.
We’re crossing our fingers for rain today and tonight. In such strange times, it seems so weirdly normal to be doing such a small thing as hoping for rain.

Nap perfect
26 03 2020
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. 🙂

Every which way

Gaia’s mane looks a bit like that commercial with the half-shaved golden retriever, eh? Like someone gave her a bit of a trim … but left the dredlocks dangling.
It was another windy day in the basin under a cloudy sky.

Everybody’s fuzzy, still.
Everybody’s getting ready to shed, finally.

Greater distance
22 03 2020
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.

Great distance

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.

Bright spots

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. 🙂

Calm before the rain?
18 03 2020
The Denver news weather woman talked about coming weather that might feel more like winter than spring. … Like that would be a bad thing, especially because we in the southwestern corner of the state are wondering who stole our winter.
Bring the rain, bring the snow! Just bring the MOISTURE!
