Just FYI. I've gone back and added and corrected most of the wildflower identifications and also added links. I believe this is the only ID that I'm currently lacking.

Thanks for sharing. An amazing place it is indeed. Nice to hit the local haunts while the gett'n is good amongst the things mother nature deals us that keep the masses at bay. Nice score!
Thanks Capt! We are darn lucky to live so close to this area and see it during all seasons.
Beautiful beautiful country and photography! Thanks for letting us see it, too.
You are most welcome Mr. Sage!

Thanks Frank! Yes, it was amazing to see most of the lizards in their bright "look at me, I'm available colors."
Really enjoyed the read and photos! Wish my 'commute' to out there wasn't so long! You two are very lucky hikers!
Thanks buckland! Yes, we know how lucky we are and will keep it up as long as we possibly can.

Thanks Monte.Great looking shoes ,don't have a name fro them though.just enjoy your walks.

Yes, I'm getting to really like the orange. I have 4 years of pleasure ahead with these. They are so much fun to completely wear out. My first pair I bought in 1969 were size 9.5. The new orange ones are size 11.5. How did that happen? I do weigh 10 lbs. more than I did then.

Thanks for the final part of your journey.
Your wildflower photos are always beautiful.
Yes it's to see our tax money is protecting the "Graboids"
from being molested by us mere humans.
Great trip.

Frank, that is a large piece of private property - that's probably why the movie town "Perfection" was built and filmed there - so our tax money is not evolved. Could be this private company is working on bringing the Graboids back, like the talk we hear about mammoths.

I bought a pair myself last month, have yet to really try them out. I noticed the increase in shoe size too... maybe they are trying to flatter us? Big shoes means big ???? (socks... where did your mind go????)

I miss read the sign,saw the Stars and Strips and thought it was government property.
Yes bring back the Mammoths and all those extinct creatures.
