Green River, WY

 Hampton Inn, had to go with a non Gallo single serving.... What is this world coming to?

 Below is the view from my window....from the front it's I -80

Last Big Day, Where the deer and the antelope play

 Gorgeous fall color

 The Sawtooths

 This must  have been an original homestead

 Standing in the field

 Close up, not ready

 Now ready, kinda pouty

 Antelope!!!

 Back over the Summit

Fred's idea of going for a swim

Along with toy poodle Lila who thinks she's a Lab.

At least someone here does.

Move Over, Boca Dog Park

 You've been replaced. Big Time. (Above, Golden who bathes in the river and then comes out for a mud wallow, every day. It just never gets old)

 Nice dogs, nice sticks.

 This is the Warm Springs Golf Course. It has gone out of business.

But the incredibly sainted owners are allowing the community to use it as a dog park !!!

 Big portions are still being irrigated, and the course is still being maintained

 The views are gorgeous. Despite last week's odd moose and bear

 C'mon, Mom

 New pals

 And, of course a nice clean river (Happy mud wallowing dog!)

Old Boy Makes it to the Top O' the World Again

 Again succeeds in not being eaten by a bear

 It's still a bit hazy due to the wildfires

 Someone must have really loved this trail

 The sheepherders are still making their way to the Trailing of the Sheep Festival

 One hardy tree

 I decided to get in the hot tub later than usual, and once again was the evening entertainment for elk mom and babies! The two babies just hung out and napped while mom ate grass. Too cute.

Fall on a Cloudy Day

The old boy took a day off of grinnin' down bears, so we took a drive 

 Suddenly in the midst of brown and sage mountains, there appeared a blast of color

 The area is called Cove Creek-- it's the creek that provides this gorgeous color

 But also is a well known bear sighting area ( a fact unbeknownst to the old boy when he hiked it the next day)

 The road is pretty rough

 Fortunately the old boy knows how to read a map. Last time we were in the area we ended up having to literally back down a mountain since there were no turnarounds.

 Really pretty stream bed.  Not bad for a drizzly cloudy day!

 My mother in law always told me: "Just add a pop of red" So here we go!
