In this quiet area of rare beauty, no need for barbed wire. Those parcels of land are all surrounded by low walls whose top is bristled with flat stones.

Farrell Flat (formerly Hanson) is a town in South Australia. The town is located 20 kilometres (12 mi) east of Clare and 22 kilometres (14 mi) southwest of Burra on the former Peterborough railway line, in the Regional Council of Goyder.
Once the heart of a thriving farming community, Farrell Flat today is largely a satellite town to the larger towns nearby. It has retained its own identity, with a functioning hotel, cafe and meeting house, engineering business and grain silos.
The town was surveyed as Hanson in 1870 and did not officially become Farrell Flat until 19 September 1940. The name Farrell's Flat had been in use for some time, this being the name of the railway station. The nearby town of Davies was officially renamed to Hanson on 19 September 1940.
What you might term "the Glasgow Fascist style" in Gilbert Bayes' reliefs of Commerce and Industry on the 1935 Commercial Bank on Bothwell St.
Aneurus avenius Aradidae, male + larvae
ID-cred: CC Coulianos
Size: 5 mm (adult specimen)
You typically find these peculiar, almost two-dimensional, bugs under bark. I'm somewhat puzzled by they "bullseye" pattern on the back of the larvae – any theories?

I was up on the Skagit Flats in Western Washington a week ago. The Skagit River was running high, so all the eagles that hang out there had come down to the flats. Almost every farmyard with a tree had an eagle in it.

It almost looks like farming still exists throughout the Rockies even though many original farms are now plots for growing prairie castles. Who could really use food from (growing) plants instead of industrial plants? Soylent green, anyone? Ah, an original farmstead with all the textures! Can you believe that I have gone by this place with Rabbit Mountain in the background, before but never really noticed. Rule one! Stay awake.
Like most remaining early farmsteads, this place is covered with inedible leftovers. Some cleanup is awaiting but only if this place gets it's imminent prairie castle. Then it's all "out damned spot!" By then, Trump would need new pasture for his pet mule. Until then, this is a good collection of the old and even older. However, it looks like more weather is building over the divide.
I could no longer social distance at home for Saturday but decided that I probably had not contracted Donnievid-19 yet, even while Boulder County cases keep escalating toward a thousand but I hope most are in Boulder especially after congregation of the idiot young at Boulder Creek. Time (two weeks) will tell. I never stopped and talked to anyone on my trek. I waited until last Wednesday's senior moment at King Soaker's before shopping again. I have not contracted Trump's corona yet. I test every morning by sniffing my jar of hand sanitizer and downing and tasting my spoon of apple cider vinegar. Both still work. I must have dodged it one more time and another 14 days til the next explosion. As usual, I trekked out on the flats toward the Foothills for anything I may have missed by not thoroughly observing. I found this shot and my trek became a bit of release for me. Gotta do what I can while spring starts sprouting colors.
The feedlot shots on my recent trek also became a bit of release for me. Gotta do what I can while spring reluctantly sprouts colors. We got an inch of the rain we really needed while the San Juans already lost snow pack to 2%. Sheesh! We might get more tomorrow. A cover of snow in the Rockies atop leftover corona will be our blow to the Trumpandemic virus as skiing is restarted.
Stay home! I've seen many things everywhere along my paths on display in the Rockies. My day stretched out nicely as I traveled back and found other hits on rural routes on my way home and some captures I liked. I hookied over to Mac Lake for a look-see and little look-found. The Trump troopers without masks congregate everywhere. Even this day is stretching on. With so many snaps in my directories, pictures are everywhere if I break my safe home distancing.
Fie fi fo fum...I smell the Fancy Feast from my sweet Mum.
Here I am, arms hanging off either side, legs doing the same and I thought that I may as well rest my head too while I was at it. Now, I assure you I am NOT, repeat N-O-T fat. I am simply relaxed and the Tuxie spread is there on accounta I layin' flat with my arms and legs hanging down on either side. Oh and I am working on growing back my one white eyebrow. The rest are black and the white one fell out to my dismay. It is making its way out again to enhance my beauty.
Bonaire is part of the 'Caribbean Netherlands' (along with the islands of Sint Eustatius and Saba). They are referred to as the BES and are special municipalities of the Netherlands. Residents of the three islands are Dutch citizens.
Bonaire sits off the coast of Venezuela and along with Aruba and Curacao is referred to as the ABC Islands.
Salt flats.
Linn Run as it passes over flat rock. The water was roaring today as we were here during the rain, not the best day to try out the natural water slide. A return trip in the spring when all the rhododendron are in bloom is on my bucket list for next year.

The albeit short run from Kirkby up to Headbolt lane, and return, is made under battery power. (they were not flat, honest)
The Red tail markers, along with the now extinguished front lights, look like battery state indicators, well to me, anyhow ;-))
Not had time to do new drops recently.. was asked to create an image of a water drop refracting a company logo for work so been doing that for the last couple of nights.
This one is a bit odd.. such a flat splash and only tiny droplets coming off it.

Rose doesn’t like the flat country, but I always did – flat country seems to give the sky such a chance.
