More doin's - of various natures

Over the past week or so, we've done a lot of little things here and there.  Not any of them "big" enough for their own post, but fun, or beautiful, or social.  So I'm compiling some photos of them to show you what we've been up to. Hope it pleases.
Our first trip was a hike up the Utah Construction Trail at Rich Bar

At the Rich Bar Cemetary, a man I once knew and admired

Hamrick's Cabin

Hamrick's Place

me and my twin sis


the Flag at Rich Bar, from Hamrick's Place, zoomed up as big as I could, with Hwy 70 in the background, "unseen"

The Flag seen without zoom

the pointy hill in the photo's center is where the flag is; the little hillock behind-left is where we were







Next was a frosty morning run up Caribou Road

this was what my camera took when I light-metered it a certain way

very frosty rocks, and only but a few of the ones strewn along the boulder field

I love this one particularly

From there, we took Barbara on a tour up Caribou Road, and then wended to the Scottish Robert Burns Dinner in Reno.  Good times!

It was the name on the back of a vehicle; it intrigued and amused me, so I photographed it.

The trolley and gauge at Deadwood Flat

Finally, (phew!) I give you our trail-working day, which was today.  We worked on the lower section of the Tobin Trail.

Thanks for looking in!
