Hiking, Fishing...No Reading, and Dusty Roads


Have you ever had a day that just wasn't coming together? Tuesday was like that for me. I was supposed to go to Dillon to get my MT driver's license, but that wasn't working out for one reason and another. I didn't know what to do.
I ended up hiking in places I'd never been, getting some new flower pics, and revisiting some old places. I've never descended over the left side of the rocky point, nor have I taken pictures of glacier lilies, nor stepped into the waters of Henry's Lake. There's always something new to do here! It's big country.




A small picture, I know, but this is the top of a little hogback ridge that swoops upward to it's end which is a pile of big boulders baking in the sun. It's great!




Descending from the point~ Thankfully there was trail at the bottom in a green little valley.









Contented cows by the north end of the lake. See the greens here!














Knee-deep in green grass with the water of Red Rock Creek sliding by, willows shading the curving banks, a good book in my hand.





A few hours later I was wading in the just-right waters of Henry's Lake, and riding the dusty old roads of the Centennial Valley. This is a not a bad place to have a day off.
