Jeanne and I had to fix a leak in the skylight of the pump house today and decided afterward we’d hike up the rock outcropping to see what we could see.
This land is so beautiful and inviting. Watching nature do its thing is amazing to see. The color, the smells, wildlife, the quiet and the peace. I am so grateful to be here. To be able to do this and live like this - it’s truly beyond words. We hope you can find what gives you meaning in life. To be at peace and be happy. Nature helps you do that.
Castilleja, commonly known as Indian paintbrush or prairie-fire, is a genus of about 200 species of annual and perennial herbaceous plants native to the west of the Americas from Alaska south to the Andes, northern Asia, and one species as far west as the Kola Peninsula in northwestern Russia.
Our little “Stonehenge”
This is shot from the lower rock outcropping. Elevation about 8700 feet above sea level (2.700 meters). Pump house on the left and you can see the house through the trees.
Always have to watch out for Mountain Lions and Bears this time of year. Look close, are those lairs?
