Trailhead at the boat launch in Carson City. I’ve been feeling a bit discombobulated since returning to Nevada in October.

Tired of the brown. We need snow to cover up the trash and replenish the aquafers.

I didn’t have my phone out in time to take a picture of the heron that was perched here. Maybe next time.

Breaking free from the circle.

Making the most of her weekly bath day, Lucy decided to roll in the mud when she was off-leash. No more winging it today.
