Shhh, it appears the larkspur are mostly gone, as Mark pointed out this morning. It's at least 2 weeks earlier than last year. The cowboys usually take a ride through Star Mt. to check it out - once they see this, the cows will follow. Yippee!
Finished book #34. Great murder mystery set in Rome A.D. She's written a ton on this series - I will be getting more. Lindsey Davis - Jupiter Myth.
We have deer in the yard every morning it seems. This is a spike buck who found the other salt lick that Mark put out in the front. Yes, we're actually promoting deer hopping over the fence. They can eat whatever, we've left the yard wild, and only hope they won't eat the baby aspen.
New flower plant has popped up on Star Mt. It only blooms every 2 - 7 years, and they weren't here last summer. It's called Gentian and can get up to 9 feet high. This time of year is fun: one thing stops blooming and the next jumps right in.
Mark has left for the big Black Canyon guided fishing/float trip. Lots of gear crammed into bags. It's camping time - whoo hoo. It's supposed to be perfect fishing - cross fingers...
Woke up this morning excited about getting out there... now I only have to get through the next 4 weeks :)
