Transitioning away from a conventional American lifestyle.
Pause for a Trip Back in Time
Ok. So it has been pointed out that I have been failing miserably at posting pics and videos. So, without further ado, pressing reverse and going back in time to share some photos and videos I have. Note: I’m not going to include any on my solar system as I plan a special blog entry for that nor of the hike with Artem as I’ve already dedicated a blog with pics to that.
I believe this was Cathedral Rock entering Portal AZ. Taken on my birding trip with Pete and Judy on Feb 26Snow on the mountain. Taken from the property on Feb 28. Snow was a rare sight this winter and it when it did fall in the mountains visible from the property, it didn’t stay long. I was told that snow fall was abnormally light this year. Sunrise taken from the property on Feb 28. Photo’s don’t do it justice in terms of it’s beauty, or maybe it is the unskilled photographer. 🙂Another sunrise photo taken from the property on Feb 28.
Sunrise. DUH. I’m usually not dumb enough to look at the sun. Honestly, this is the moon rising. Taken just off Highway 80 on March 1.Sunset taken from the property on April 8Artem was tired of looking through my dirty windshield so volunteered to clean it for me before our afternoon drive into the Chiricahua mountains. Taken in Animas, NM April 15After a seemingly long drive through canyons, narrow two way dirt roads, making turns from one road to another with minimal signage at best and no signage in many cases, no GPS maps preloaded, no paper map from the Visitor Center we stopped at (was regretting not buying one), with numerous switchbacks going up the mountain side (did I mention two way traffic on a one lane road and no safety barriers to prevent you from going down the mountain side?), we arrived at Rustler Park to be greeted with this worth while view. Taken April 15.Gila Monster at Tom and Alicia’s. I was sitting an visiting with Tom outside his place when his dogs alerted to something in their fenced yard that shouldn’t be there. I don’t know how many venomous lizard species there are but this is one of them. Tom said he has seen one on my property near the rock structures this year as well. Photo taken April 20.Friends Christine, Dennis, and Gary performing at Mountain Valley Lodge. Photo taken April 20.Let’s have some fun with this one with some reader participation. What the heck is this photo of and why am I sharing it (besides being a bit mentally off)?
Ok. Gotta run for now. It is my intent to do another post this evening with updates since the last post. Have a great day everyone!!
BINGO. I had to pause to remove two mesquite thorns sticking through the bottom of my boots.
I currently have a couple in the bottom of my daily wear shoes that when I step wrong on a rock every thing gets compressed sufficiently to remind me that they are there.
Is there supposed to be that big of a gap between the wall of the boot and the sole? Its blurry though when I blow it up any bigger. I can’t tell if something is in there.
Inside of a shoe?

Close enough. It was the inside of my boot. And part 2 of the question? Why? IE: What was I showing about the inside of my boot?

Great Pictures. I would say you are sharing the picture to show the THORNS coming through the bottom of your show. Ouch!
