Was out getting some yard weed shots yesterday evening after the rain. I looked up and saw my little buddy splashing in puddles. He is determined these last few days to dress himself so his shoe of choice is his rainboots, even when it isnt raining...Love him some kind of good.

I saw this little This Eastern chipmunk (Tamias striatus) at the end of its tree trunk burrow at the Springfield Nature Center. After a bit of contemplation, it decided I wasn't a threat and scampered across the trail and into the leaf litter. I didn't seem many birds but played hide and seek with two different chipmunks.
Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest
I need you closer to love me harder
Proceed with caution, face to face
And touch me in a different kind of way
Proceed with caution, but don't make me wait
Before too long it just might fade away
Proceed with caution, caution, caution, caution, caution
...You seem a little too fierce today
Entry to mental health center parking garage.
Genius graffiti.
Still there last week when I walked by.
2024, long gone but not forgotten here.
Do not proceed if red light is flashing. This is avalanche and avalanche control territory. Somehow our visit coincided with tame weather, while the week before and the week after were full of road closures on the Drive BC website. I’m hoping to get towards the snowsheds further west on the Mountain Sub on the next visit.

Metra 116 leads an outbound train into Downers Grove during a pleasant, calm spring evening.
Thought this was strange seeing a caution tape while walking in the woods along the river. The river is high and the tape is warning about the eroding and missing bank... but it looked like the message was to beware of the wild roses:)
Had a fun day yesterday trying out my new camera for the first time with Rebeak
A "happening" bar in Goldfield, Nevada. Maybe I am wrong but the bars seem to be the most prosperous business establishments in these small towns in Nevada.
Happy Bench Monday!
Why use just one caution marker when you can use hundreds? I guess the city got a good deal on these markers, lol.
(at time of photo, this bear cub was 16 months old and weight approx 70 kg, so imagine an animal similar in size to a bullmastiff dog)
I have a theory to determine the relative intelligence of various animals. Ok, it is more of a joke than anything but it has to do with how they cross the road.
Squirrels and chipmunks are the risk takers of the animal world. They don't look, they just make a mad dash for it. More times than not, they seem to somehow make it even when a car drives by above them.
Of the larger animals, deer seem to rely the most on instinct and least on intelligence. They dart back and forth and even when they have it made, they might do a 180 and leap back to the original side. As if that weren't enough, they always seem to have a couple of friends along who are watching this horror show and then they do the same thing.
Moose are the most regal of the highway crossers. They stand stoically in the ditch, calmly look both ways and then walk across. In the animal kingdom, moose definitely get a B+ for highway crossing etiquette.
Then there are the grizzly bears. Grizzlies are on another level above all others in the animal kingdom when it comes to highway crossings. I would put them on par with most humans and above some of us.
I have seen a mother bear on multiple occasions organize her cubs on the side of the road, wait for a long gap in the traffic and then have them follow her, single file, straight across the road. You won't see one of her cubs stepping out into traffic, lollygagging, panicking or crisscrossing the road.
Bears definitely get an A+ for road crossing skills, closely followed by humans, who generally average an A-.
When I saw this sign I wondered if it could really have survived the fire that burned everything else for miles around or if it was put up afterwards. Talk about too little too late.
Top of Lippincott Mine Road I've been up Lippincott a few times over the years and have never seen the road in such bad shape. Still, it was no problem for our Jeeps.

Last weekend I had a professional make-up artist who made my make-up. So I couldn't resist to make me a cover girl. ;-)
Be careful who you tangle with. They may be smaller than you and with less sophisticated weapons, yet will give you intense pain!
