Puppers is probably about a year old now. We adopted him in January, at about three months. Haven’t had a puppy for a long time. He’s 90% angel, 10% demon. Me luv.
Puppers got his first grown up harness and a new bone.

What is it about vine maples changing colors in the fall that makes me so happy? 🍁 These went straight from green to red. Daylight hours are getting shorter, and we’ve already experienced a first fall frost.

We need our wild spaces nearly as much as the critters that live out there, making a living off the land.

Someone recently asked if I had a favorite wildflower. No. I have many favorite wildflowers. Here’s a Lewis’s monkeyflower I saw a few days ago.

There are many places I try to visit during “wildflower season”, during “prime” visiting time. During offseason. Haven’t made it many places this season. The high desert of Central Oregon is past prime… but look at all what is still out there. These are alpine gentian blooming at 6,000 ft.

We’ve got a few fires of our own in the Pacific Northwest. I’m glad the wind is blowing away from my home, blue skies. There’s a fire about 10 miles away. If the smoke comes this way, it means the fire is coming this way.

Sagebrush mariposa lily, kind of the grand finale of the desert wildflowers around here. Stunning wildflowers. I’m not sure the identity of the green fly, the insect pollinator.

My first instinct was: cool, art. Art made from natural materials. But: this isn’t leave no trace, rules to live by in recreation. Moving rocks disturbs habitat. It’s in a sensitive habitat that doesn’t recover right away. Not as big of a deal when there were fewer humans. Please don’t.
