Flash Back Friday?

Happy Friday everyone, are you all ready for the weekend? 

I have to work, my weekend starts on Monday, so Friday is my hump day. What are your plans? 

Today I thought I would look back to one year ago on this date. Maggie Mae, my little red Aussie was still alive, it was a perfect warm sunny day.  My son and I decided to go visit a nearby River called the Santa Margarita River. It was a very short walk but so worth the enjoyment everyone had. 

Here are a few shots of this day, enjoy. 

#1 A look back

Maggie Mae looking back down the dry river bed. The actual river is just under the big trees you see in the top third of the frame.

#3 The hill

I thought this was interesting. I don't know what the lines are on this hill. 

  1. This looks like striations. We have them on some of the hills here, though the ones here were caused by glaciers. Different kinds of erosion can make them. Of course man can too, but those don’t look manmade.

      • The reason I suspect that it isn’t manmade terracing is that the striations are generally going down-slope. I’d think that if they were manmade, they’d be level. Of course, earthquakes could cause one side of the hill to be higher than the other, but I don’t know how far this is from the nearest fault.

With the river beyond. I heard a big splash, wonder what that could be.

#7 The river

the water is crystal clear but the sand is wet, making it look amber.

#8 The splash

was Meika my wolfdog. She waiting for us slow pokes to catch up. 

#9 On to the other side

I wouldn't suggest owning a wolf hybrid, she is a rescue. I wouldn't trade her for the world. She is such a good girl, but does not act like a dog. One of the good things about a wolf is that they are pack animals and stay together. Being so she is never far away hence the waiting for us to catch up before adventuring on. 

    • I hate when the reply button doesn’t work. To get it to work on comments after photos I had to go back to Kim’s posts page and click through again to get the whole post. Then I could see and reply to all the comments after the photos.

#10 Art edit

I leave you with this art edit I did, because for the life of me that day I couldnt get a picture of her without the white being blown out. It was straight up noon with a bright sunny day, not a cloud in sight. 

Have a great weekend!
