Six Words and Sunday Shadows March 11-12, 2017

Good day for a road trip!!!

 

 

 

Yep....we're off road first heading to

Bahia San Basilio......

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I spotted this boulder and it immediately

inspired me to make some stone sculptures.... 

 

 

One...

 

Two...

 

 

 

Three...

 

 

 

Once we got back on Highway #1

we headed back down south and

then hung a right and found the

San Juan Bautista Londo Mission.

Which was essentially a pile of rubble

next to this cemetery. 

 

 

 

One Hundred Twenty years old???

 

Just one wall with a window....

Go explore Six Words and Shadow Shots!

The deer were a little pushy....

It's winter and they are hungry.

 

 

 

First I saw the buck... 

 

Tossed some pieces of carrots 

 

Such a gorgeous animal....

I think he's one of the fawns from a few years past.

We've been here now for almost 5 years!

 

Then a few of this years fawns and a doe

showed up too. I went back in the house

when they got too close....

 

Last shot taken from inside the house!

 

Do check out Six Words and Sunday Shadows.

And have a lovely day!

Thanks to René for the inspiration! 

 

 

My Tribute to René Magritte

We had a lot of fun and I did too!

I met Isabella the Iguana yesterday....

Some places of business have cats or dogs,

but I'd never been in a beauty salon where

the resident pet was an Iguana!

Isabella was polite and stayed on her window

seat and thankfully

didn't want to sit on my lap!

And I got the best haircut and color ever!

Last Friday we took a hike

detouring around newly fallen snow.
Instead of going to Castle Lake we took
an old logging road and I took a few photos.

I enjoy participating in Six Words and
Sunday Shadow Shots.

Logging industry relic-

 great photo opportunity!

 

 

 

A few days ago we went by this "wigwam"-

Luckily I am married to a very patient man

as he nicely stopped the car so I could spend

a bit of time photographing the inside and outside

of this lumber industry relic.

 

 

As you can see I will be back by myself

to slowly spend time making more images.

I love old rusty machinery.

Especially ones that have such history.

Check this information out!

Meanwhile have a super day!

Eerie light created by numerous wildfires....

We've had lots of lightning and consequently 

there are currently multiple lightning-sparked fires

burning in Siskiyou County in both federal and state land. 

There were over 955 downstrikes recorded.

We have not had sufficient snowpack

for at least the past 3 years.

Look at the photos below and compare.

We are in a severe drought. 

Hopefully this winter we get snowed in!!!
