Just went to the Post Office [View all]

It is 30 miles one way through a very rural area, but it does have some benefits. We get to see nature in a variety of ways.

Here is a nursing Mother pronghorn antelope with twins.




And here is a ever vigilant prairie dog.


We also seen four cow elk, but they left before I could get the camera turned on.

I guess that is rush hour, out here.
