Last Sunday Poppy and I headed out early for an agility match. I paused near the bottom of our hill to capture the morning mist and Mt. Hood, then drove toward and under some hot air balloons rising into the calm dawn sky. There was no good place to pull over, so I shot blind through the windshield to capture what I could:
Poppy's and my results were not quite so spectacular, but we did respectably, earning two qualifying scores and one first place in four attempts. By the end both my knees were screaming, though; it took 36 hours of anti-inflammatories to get comfortable again.
Bitsy, on the other hand, has gotten steadily better, and is walking without a limp again. Still, she and her mother are safer staying in the barn stall for now. There's nothing to eat out in the pasture anyway; the ewes tell me that loudly all day long. Today I put hay out for them, and later, the last of the bolting lettuce I pulled from the herb barrel.

Busy time of year - here too. That first shot of Mt. Hood is a stunner!
Thanks, A. The resolution isn't good enough for a large print, but I still like it and it works fine in this format.
Wow, that first sky and mountain picture is amazing. Frame worthy. You get the best nature views.
Elaine, like I told "A," the resolution in that first photo would not bear printing and framing, but thanks for the compliments!
Your opening pictures of the sky are fantastic!! My daughter and I got a few views of a brilliant rainbow on Wednesday on our drive home, along the Lookout Point reservoir. It was fantastic! We were moaning that fact that there are very few places on Hwy 58 where you can pull over, and the trees in that area are plentiful.
I'm sorry to be slow in making a comment, but I wasn't aware of this post.
I forgot to mention your lovely wrap! Is it finished?
