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.
