Spring Creek Basin Mustangs

Oh, that rich dark velvety Cassidy Rain. So very pretty against the snow and the canyon’s golden rocks.

WordPress has changed things again. Is it possible the pix are large again?

Pretty Gaia in her warm copper coat. The stark white snow seems to make their colors so much warmer and richer this time of year.

It is with horribly heavy heart that I report that the current external hard drive on which I store main photo files is – in the words of the computer repair guy – “toast.” He didn’t actually say “dead,” but the words “not alive” were spoken.

The good news is that my files are backed up as of a month ago. The bad news is that photos filed in the last month are “toast.”

The title of the post refers to the fact that it was one of my cats who caught the power cord and pulled the hard drive off the coffee table I use as a desk. It also means this particular drive didn’t have an extraordinary tenth life available. Sadly. 😦

Posts are on hold until after the following: a) another visit to the ponies, b) getting my good (backup) hard drive back from the computer guy (who lives an hour and a half away) and c) early Thanksgiving with some far-flung neighbors this weekend.

It’s pretty amazing that this is the first time in my personal computer history that a hard drive has failed. It happens sooner or later to everyone. … Right? Argh.

With “auntie” Puzzle and mama Shadow, Tesora is as safe as a wild baby can be. They’re watching Grey/Traveler’s band and Sundance’s band. Mariah had wandered over to play with Mysterium and Skywalker for a little bit until Sundance decided play time was over.

Can you see how windy it was? Spring in the basin!
