So – we moved over the summer, my computer is still packed away as we’re getting settled in, and there’s been NO time for exploring! Ha. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

BUT! We did have some time today to go rambling. We found plenty of exercise and fresh air as well as a couple of things from the past. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

As we explored up a draw, we came across a single petroglyph. Later, we crested a ridge and had an expansive view of the area below, including a nice volcanic ridge in the distance. We slogged on over, stepping carefully over the desert pavement and through dried, prickly vegetation, but nothing much panned out until we reached the end of the ridge. There, sitting on the open flat below the ridge, was a small portable grinding stone, topped by a mano. That was a nice find! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a couple of pictures I took. I hope to be back soon with more trip reports. We have some plans in the works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We found this solitary scratched petroglyph on a boulder in a shallow draw. It has the feel of a waymarker to it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Out in the open on the sandy flat, I happen across this grinding slick with a mano still perched on it. I should have taken a better picture to show it off, because it was a nice little find.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, that was a short little report on a nice little walk. We capped it off with a nice lunch at the local brewery. About a year ago, we sat in that same brewery with visiting family, thawing out over a late lunch after a cold trip up into the mountains. This trip was altogether more mellow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
