February 26, 2015, Thursday

Scott pretending to be a wildland firefighter, with fire hat and chainsaw.
(Firehat is backwards!)
Turnouts might help!  lol

Scott practices his bow sometimes.  He loves shooting it.

After nocking his own arrow he takes aim at the target.

The half moon in the mid-day sky.

We rode bicycles to a smaller 'warm' spring about 4 miles from us.  This is a channel where
they measure water flow.

Steven and Scott jumped to the other side so I could take a picture
 of the channel.  They call it a 'weir'.

This is looking up from by the channel toward where we parked our bicycles.

We started following some burro tracks away from the spring.

This is a Beavertail Cactus with several flower buds about to open.
The flowers are a brilliant pink when they open.

We hiked for a couple hours, almost to Valley of Fire.
Scott hid behind me when Steven went to take a picture, so I
lifted him out into sight.

Steven and Odie follow the trail up out of a wash.

After a while Scott got back to riding in one of his favorite places.

Scott and Steven pose along the trail. You can see the lake in the distance.
 
Above the spring, looking east toward the lake.
 

On the ride home I took a picture of Scott kicking back relaxing.

Scott fixed up a "cave" under the kitchen table.

Cooking on the grill.  Chicken breasts in the middle.  Sweet potatoes roasting in the foil.
Sweet red pepper slices around the edge.

Just a random picture of the hills and bluffs across the lake.

More of the same.  I'm wondering if all that white stuff in the middle is a mine?
This is on telephoto.

Eating dinner outside.
