Despite [or maybe because of] a warm dry winter followed by generous spring rains it became a good grass year on the desert…with no ticks; ticks were replaced by an unprecedented influx of Miller moths which persisted until [exactly] the first of July. It was also a good snake year, fish year, sculpture park year and dog year, with a little studio time thrown in…

“My favorite rat poison…” outlawed? Terrible news.
Nice summation and pics. I believe you shot the Shell while I was getting the tire fixed.
Looking forward to Libre posts.
Hooray Micheal – These are especially good photos of an especially spring-like summer. Thanks, Fred
Mike, we had a great time on our visit, kinda sorry we missed the rattler. How did the dogs react?
I’m glad you spend so much time looking at things. Thank you.
