Morning Coffee – Still Waiting For Snow…
While we still wait for the Jet Stream to drop in on North West Wyoming Peyton and I did something a little different earlier this week. We went off the main roads onto a snow-covered dirt road that follows some power lines. We ran smack dab into three moose that were jousting with each other. We had…

Morning Coffee – Moose Again…
This morning like most before I headed towards Antelope Flats as the amount of wildlife found there has been amazing. One big difference was that when I went to the gym this morning early, the temperature on my Jeep said it was 34 degrees. A far cry from -15 of the past two weeks. But…

Morning Coffee – Moose On The Loose…
Today it was absolutely beautiful and cold too – about -2 degrees. This morning we counted in excess of 25 moose all around the valley. We saw cows and with their calves, big brutes with full racks on their heads and some younger males trying to keep up with their elders. This was one of the…

Morning Coffee, First Day of Winter…
As I woke up this morning and looked out the window all I could see was stars! Then I realized that today was the first day of winter. As I laid in bed contemplating where I wanted to go this morning I realized that with clear skies I would have a nice shot of the Teton…

Signs of Wyoming…
Not sure what got into me today but I just decided to take some pictures of all the signs we have here in Wyoming. This gallery of pics is a small example of the signs we see everyday in our state. Call me crazy but I had a lot of fun this morning. I saw…

As we move ever closer to the start of the winter of 2011 we are blessed with a variety of beautiful days here in the Rockies. On this morning we were blessed with clear blue Wyoming skies and almost no one on the roads north of town. Our plan was as it is most mornings,…
