Yes, believe it or not, I do still exist. I may be off in Colorado, and I may have detoured for quite a while with a number of different things, but I’m not planning on abandoning this blog.
Not in the least.
Next up, I’m planning to finish the series I started on my trip out here, and then talk a little more about what it’s like to be out here — both from the sort of day-to-day, physical perspective, living in Colorado, being among the mountains, and from the much more emotional and intellectual point of view, taking this kind of break in my life, figuring out what I want to do, the connections I’ve made with people, and so forth. To me, that’s the really important stuff in life by far, and I’d like to make this a place where I can talk about just that kind of thing.
In the mean time, I’ll leave you with two pictures. I was out for a run yesterday, and ran right by these guys; I didn’t even notice them until I was almost all the way past. They were all of 60-70 feet off the road, and there are well over a hundred of them — it really makes you realize why they’re colored the way they are; they look just like rocks from any distance at all in the wintertime. They meander through the front yard here, too, and I’ve run literally through big herds of them at times. (They’ll give you about ten feet of clearance, but you really can get astonishingly close to them.)
Hope you enjoy — more posts coming soon, and I’ll post some Bighorn pictures soon, to boot…
