Images from June - December 2013


Little did I know when growing up in Orick
The last 6 months provided many special occasions to enjoy special events, people and environments and the re-discovery of photo's taken but not really "forgotten", but have brought them here to share with those reading this post:

Nothing like a fresh coating of snow on a John Deere
Pompous Grass along Redwood Creek jetty

The elusive elk that the boys can not seem to find during the many trips they have taken in November, or so they say??


I wonder what my sister is thinking about here, days gone by or adventures yet to be had.

Good thing this establish walls can not talk, the stories they could reveal, such a "blast" of good times from the past.  (unfortunately, it is no longer in business, but the sign remains)

Interesting "fungi"
