Good that you are crossing paths wi...Jim and Gayle,<br />Good that you are crossing paths with Pal Boonie, and that he even goes hiking demonstrates his high esteem for "Life's Little Adventurers." :) I would imagine Silver City's climate to be perfect this time of year...bobbie says you're in a holding pattern there in that quaint little RV park. We stayed there while visiting Boonie the first time and found it pleasant. Lovely Ouray is warming up...it seldom goes below freezing anymore.<br />thanks<br /><br />Gumo,<br />Yes the agave is a favorite...did you notice the impressions of the hook thorns left on the inner shoot? It must have just unwrapped. thanks gumo<br /><br />Lisa,<br />You are correct...it was a beach in San Diego. Good eye and memory! thanks for your comment.<br />You guys are moving right along now, I see...<br /><br />John and Pam,<br />Thanks guys...I have so many photos from our early RV adventures I thought I'd drag out the scrapbook once in a while and share them. :))<br /><br />Walden Steve,<br />Your comparison and preference of the Box Canyon Blogger is flattering... and just goes to show how "art" is in the eye of the beholder. It doesn't take a "Renoir" to get my juices going...sometimes the simplest watercolor captures my attention.<br /><br />Hemingway would find my style a bit too flowery...too ornate, sometimes. It happens when I'm in a certain "mood," and I want to write a poem instead of a blog post. I like the freedom of being able to do that once in a while. Hemingway would also frown on the number of adjectives...keep the prose unadorned and direct, revise and strip away, and above all, "Kill the adverbs." <br />Hemingway and Faulkner often attacked each other's styles...they were opposites, for sure, and each extremely good at what they did. Thanks you Steve.<br /><br />Chris,<br />Thanks Chris... the photo was taken in Snow Canyon State Park, just north of St. George, Utah. It was a cold winter day, and the clouds were so rich against the red rocks and blue sky. thanks for noticing. <br />markBox Canyon Blog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07032055509766739436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-16326494586719952242013-05-06T21:24:43.806-06:002013-05-06T21:24:43.806-06:00Mark, what delicious metaphors percolate through t...Mark, what delicious metaphors percolate through those first paragraphs.

Great pic of the elegant trogon. We did a hike yesterday with your pal Boonie and talked about seeing the trogon at Patagonia Lake.<br />Our weather here has been just about perfect. Shouldn't be too much longer before it gets better in Lovely Ouray, correct?Jim and Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13982110996137470496noreply@blogger.com
