We. Are. Grateful.

Yeah.
It’s a little bit like that. 🙂

The best of green and blue
12 03 2019
The little blue “square” in the middle is just east of McKenna Peak Wilderness Study Area (labeled), which is east of and in the eastern part of Spring Creek Basin Herd Management Area.
I’m wearing a smile as big and broad as lower Disappointment Valley. 🙂

Noticed

Maiku, a bachelor following a band, gives another bachelor the stink eye.
Walking out to visit them, I crossed several arroyos – all of which had clear water trickling through the bottoms. Wow. Even this wonderful winter, that’s a remarkable thing here in the desert, and it deserves to be remarked upon!

Shades of brown

After a full day of rain, rain and more drizzly rain, we are soggy. 🙂
This pic of sleepy Tenaz was taken last month. Access to the basin is difficult lately. In the very best way!

This, we like

No, it’s not what you may first think.
Flashbacks, anyone?
If your first thought was “fire-smoke-cloud,” who could blame you? But that’s just a regular ol’ cloud (yes, a rather big one). Moisture-filled, over the Colorado mountains, in March, our wettest month.
Wow. It looks good, huh? 🙂

Not so white
8 03 2019
Imagine those white specks as translucent rain – in fact, leave all the white out of the equation – and that’s what it looks like around here these days. 🙂
We have gotten moisture to the wazzoo-th degree! We are SO grateful. I was so, so very worried almost all of last year. This year, already, I am so relieved and hopeful for good growing and flowing months to come.

More elk friends
7 03 2019
*Note: Extreme laziness was employed in the photographing of these elk. 🙂 I pointed my camera and aimed through the passenger-side window of my vehicle while stopped on Disappointment Valley Road; they were in Spring Creek Basin. There may have been 20 to 25 or so.
I stayed with them for a couple of minutes, taking photos, then went on my way to let them go on theirs. Trudging through the mud can’t be any easier for them, even with their long legs, than it is for humans (hence my laziness in the vehicle ;)).

Where’d all the snow go?
6 03 2019
Melted, pal.
Don’t worry. More is on the way. 🙂 (Rain first, though!)
