Mustang (gorgeous), sunshine, storm shadow in the distance, rimrocks, mountains … who could ask for more?!
Rowan was watching a band not too close on a neighboring hill. She sometimes seems to act in a watchful, protector mode for the rest of the band.

It’s getting pretty warm out, and heat waves distort long views. But they can’t detract from simple beauty, here, featuring Maiku and Corazon.
We also get some nice rain-promise clouds in the afternoons sometimes … but they haven’t dropped any rain on us.

Watching Buckeye sauntering toward his mares under Rowan’s neck made for an interesting perspective.

One more of Hollywood from that gorgeous evening high on the ridge below Brumley Point. What a handsome boy in a glorious place. We should all be as lucky as Hollywood. 🙂

As seen from the road inside Spring Creek Basin’s western boundary, a few bands graze in the northwest hills above/beyond/north of Spring Creek canyon.
With water in places in the creek arroyo and good grazing above the canyon, it’s no wonder the bands were taking advantage of the location. (And I can attest that the views are spectacular *from* up there, too!)

Skywalker passed his bandmates to find undisturbed water upstream in the Spring Creek arroyo.

The creek isn’t flowing (alas); this is water forced to the surface by bedrock. It WAS enough water to satisfy both his band and two or three other bands – at just about nearly the same time. That’s amazing.
