rest stop

sunlit valley

I watched the sun reach down and light the tops of the golden poplars on the bottom of the bow river valley this morning. They lit up, reflecting the first rays of the day from the nuclear furnace.

obstacles

2009-07-22 - obstacles

I’m guessing the wooden fences were built to stop mountain bikers from tearing up the hill. And the power lines were put up to eat kites.
