Fun with new photos!
Since I can't scan the old photos I'd like to, lemme share some new crap!
All of this is from me and Ashley's trip to southeast Oregon in May.
For starters, look at this squirrel, and learn. Do not be like this squirrel. He is a fat, complacent rural American. He lives 200+ miles from the nearest interstate, spends all his time tending his lawn, and gets all of his water from government largesse. His life is an ecological disaster.
Aaaaaah, that's more like it. This bruiser makes his living off of ground squirrels, yet even in death, he seems to want to kill more. He gets an A+ for effort!
Here we are inside the Round Barn, built at the behest of cattle baron Pete French. That crazy bastard had three of these circular barns built just to keep his horses warm all winter. It might be worth noting that the French-Glenn Cattle Company at one time controlled an area larger than some damned eastern state, certainly, and Mr. French was murdered for being an asshole over a very small amount of land wth piss-poor water rights.
But man, could he build a barn!
Another pic from the Round Barn.
Zuma and Hamm's both demonstrating well the scale of a lava tube from the Diamond Craters flows, which occurred 'bout 25,000 years back.
Zuma, with Ashley, at a calmer moment on the trail of the (Donner und) Blitzen River.
(Close-up.) Just look at that dog. That is fucking ridiculous. That look pretty much sums up all I care to know about canines.
OK, I'm obviously missing something here. What's Zuma doing in this picture that you find odd? The tongue hanging out sideways? All dogs do that.
