Spring Creek Basin Mustangs

Even under clouds, magic glows.

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.

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. 🙂

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. 🙂

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.
