Two Timer

So good, it had to be done twice.  Returned today to see some blue sky and sun.  Maybe tomorrow I will make it thrice?  The only vehicle allowed on the dirt road belongs to the Park Service Ranger.

A wonderful smell of moisture/rain in the air.  For those who have had too much, that might be suffocating. For others, like me, intoxicating.

Lizard critters set land speed records...zooming across the terrain to their burrows in the loosened sand. A fat black beetle chugged over the dirt road to a spray of tickweed where it foraged for brunch.

The wide view put everything in its proper perspective in the scheme of things.  I am neither great nor small, hardly a thing at all...but, I am....grateful, delighted, in wonder.
