On my way to work

This week I took the camera with me and snapped a few pictures from my route to and from work. The direct route is 5/miles round trip. I try to mix it up and go different ways. The longest this week was 7.5/miles.

These pictures are from Bear Creek Park. This is the scenic route, maybe next week I will take pictures from the Urban Route. Which can at times be a very interesting, but that’s another story. I have been trying to get pictures of Coyotes. I came across one this week, but by the time I could get my camera out he/she was gone. In the spring I had come across two pups, but once again to slow with the camera. This year I have probably seen seven of them. Photos: http://picasaweb.google.com/drobincorvette/20090805#

Tomorrow I am headed out early to drive down to La Junta, Co. The plan is to do the Palmer Loop Trail before I go to work and then head out early to drive down. I am going down to meet my parents and go to an auction. I am staying an extra day and will be hiking the Picket Wire Canyon Lands again. The following link has a picture and gives a great description of the attractions and how the canyon got its name: http://www.fs.fed.us/r2/psicc/coma/main/picketwireguide.shtml

I did this hike back in November out to the Dinosaur track site. You have to cross the Purgatory River, which is fun. So take extra sock if you go.
