WWMBD


I needed to rendezvous in Salida on Friday evening with my (long lost) children.

Salida:

4th of July at Two Miles High

We took to the hills for the long weekend:

Puppy meets wildflowers:

Roadside views:

Picked up some sleep-deprived campers:

Riding bikes:

Just after chasing 750 other bikers over hill and dale for 5+ hours:

Happy B-Day America.

And Mother Nature's light show this morning.
