Strange Tuesday at Waldo--Massive Dust Devil and Weird Plane
-
Tuesday up at Waldo Lake dawned with clear blue skies! I was thrilled.I
began the day like every day there by firing up the propane single burner
stove....
My first hike since surgery
Saturday, we hiked an old roadbed to the top of a nameless mountain that I will simply list as Sec17 Twn20S Rng01E Willamette Meridian. The last 150 vertical feet were too rough for my knee, so I waited in an abandoned quarry while Peggy and the dogs summited. Andesitic rocks of blue, green, brown, black, gray, and lavender, lay beneath a gun metal sky and within a circle of snowy mountains, making this, my first trip into the woods since January, a precious event. I spotted my old friend the snowbrush—Ceanothus velutinus.
