MA Emergency Management & Homeland Security. Reluctant prairie dweller. All things Nebraska weather, scenery, gardening, food, geography, animals, night skies and history from my perspective on the floodplain.
One of my favorite songs is George Straits “I can still make Cheyenne”. When George Strait said “It’s cold out here and I’m all alone”, I did not realize he was talking about June. 😬
Wild little storm just passed through. I had to chase my hanging baskets through the yard. Federal Wyoming.
A few more photos from Rocky Mountain National Park yesterday. We had no plans to go and entered the park at 3PM after the timed entry period ended for the day. It was a beautiful day and we ended with huckleberry ice cream in Grand Lake.
Yesterday was a five Moose day in Colorado. New single day record for 2026.
I am behind on posting, so here are some Moose. Moose #1 was in the Laramie Mountain right down the hill from the I80 summit rest stop. The other Moose were seen off 130 outside Centennial in the Snowy Range.
If you are missing your three legged badger don’t worry, it is at my house.
Life in Wyoming lately. We keep swinging between spring and winter.
Just took these photos of the Hammer Fire southeast of Colorado Springs. 500 acres, per Watch Duty, with evacuations near Peyton.
It’s so dry here. I drug the hose out to try to water down the grass but it’s mostly dust. I put a big bowl of water out for the gophers and the jackrabbits, there is no water anywhere around here if they needed some. We need rain or snow, anything would be good at this point.
Gusts up to 80mph tomorrow. Glad the fence isn’t fixed yet. 🙃
Wyoming weekend roundup at Curt Gowdy State Park. We saw a Mink (image 1) and a fire while we went fishing.
Things I found in the pasture this evening. NW of Cheyenne Wyoming.
This weekends adventures included hiking in Curt Gowdy from Aspen Grove to Hidden Falls and swimming in the North Platte River at Saratoga, Wyoming.
