And the fun continues... latest trek was to Brush Creek. Gorgeous, although we timed it just a tad early for the massive wildflowers, don't get me wrong there were plenty, its just there are entire hillsides there that are getting ready to bloom. Mark tried some fishing with little success. The water was a
lot higher than we've seen it before (only gone late summer and fall). He said he was in good water but the fish weren't biting. Fun anyway.

looks like Switzerland doesn't it? |

we saw this badger trying to hide (in plain sight) |
In the spirit of last summer when we became the explorers of restaurants noone we knew had gone to, we zipped over to CB South and tried out Ruben's, a long time New Mexican, Mexican restaurant. Only open for dinner and a little ways from town, but we say thumbs up. It was really good food, definitely with a New Mexican influence.A local hangout for sure...
Big photo session from this morning. A elk mama and her baby were just outside the fence off our deck. Calves are 35lbs at birth gaining 2 lbs a day and the mamas are 500lbs. Compare that with an adult female doe - 65lbs.Wow, what a special place we live in to experience these moments. We are the visitors here and what a ride!
We had our windows cleaned by a fantastic husband/wife team. Highly recommend them - they were meticulous and it took over a day. Our crazy high windows!
