Photography And Half-Thoughts By Mitchell Hegman

...because some of it is pretty and some of it is not.

Desiree and I had a lovely day at the cabin yesterday. To begin, we found another photograph of the moose and her baby on our game camera. This one captured the pair in perfect clarity as they pranced in front of the cabin. Later, while trekking across the mountainside immediately behind the cabin, I found an edible puffball (for a fungi-loving someone other than me), one worthy of being posed beside a can of Cold Smoke beer.

The best occurrence, though, was finding the upper elevations of our mountain acreage absolutely awash with wildflowers. The lupine and arrowleaf balsamroot stood two feet tall across the mountainside and were on full display. While lupine may not be desirable for grazing animals, they do put on a righteous purple show.
