Check out all the pics from Field Camp! If anyone can brighten the pics of the doe below, I'll be very very very grateful! Eye

We passed some massive windmills on the way to Palo Duro. There were a lot of them, too!





I thought this one came out great!



Palo Duro is the 2nd largest canyon in America, and is located near Amarillo. It's practically in the middle of nowhere - you drive for miles and see nothing but farms and open land, then BOOM there's this canyon!








So I was walking down the road and my heart stopped as I saw this doe grazing near some nice people. They let me come up and take pictures of her. The photo quality sucks because it was in the afternoon, but she just minded her own business and let me take photos of her. We think she was preggo too.

She was eating leaves off a tree there



Thumper was nearby too.




I think Zephyr was following us.


Part of the hike we did, this one was tough though, but we climbed all the way to the top of the canyon and then back down.


It was all climbing, too.



Nice place, but I never want to hike it again.

If it wasn't the afternoon,

If it wasn't the afternoon, the pics of the doe would have come out a lot better. I'll try to see if I can get my brother to brighten them (or if anyone here wants to try to do that, please go right ahead) to help see her better. But yeah, some people were feeding her and let me come up and grab some pictures. She looks preggo, too.

Yeah they said that the deer

Yeah they said that the deer are protected there since it's a state park, so they're really friendly and not afraid of humans. I was really surprised when I saw her, and grabbed my camera to take photos. she just kept walking around and eating feed that the two people were tossing to her.
