Well summer has come up and kicked me in the rear this time. I've spent 3 days in the middle of the desert in the blazing sun, in 105* weather. I have gained numerous bruises, scrapes and scars to add to my collection, and I'm proud of em. It was a strange, alien place where little grows but thistles, sage, and sparse trees. The other weird thing about it, was that I was camping on a river in the middle of the desert, which flows south instead of north. Strange huh? But this isn't the best part: I got to see some of the most AMAZING wildlife.
2 bald eagles,
3 baby otters and their mother
TONS of baby duckies
some beautiful red does with white tails

but the most astounding creatures of all were the wild horses.
Beautiful palomino, buckskin, paint, and I think a couple appaloosa, with babies playing close to their mothers.
Even though it was gruelingly hot out, seeing some of the creatures and being in a place people rarely go to, and thus untouched by trash, was special.

But that's just me, what's everyone else doing this summer?
