    For those of you who know me, you know where I went. Same place I always go. Weather was quite warm, the air sort of humid and thick. The sky was gauzy with thin clouds. In years past, this area was very popular and busy on Easter Sunday. But this year, there was almost nobody out there. Makes me wonder why, even though I would rather have it this way. Just curious....

    I dressed in my very best Easter egg colored riding duds for the occasion.

    Up in the northernmost end of the valley, miles from the OHV area.

    Progress....yuck. These new towers are popping up all across the valley and ruining the scenery. They and their cleared spaces also have a direct impact on water drainage when there a re storms out there.

    There are lots of these interesting stacked rock formations out there.

    Here is also some pre-Easter GoPro footage of the same area. Yes....the bike is green, and if I pause from time to time, it's because I don't want to lose my guest that I am showing around. It's easy to get disoriented and lost out here if you don't know your way around. This is the first time that I have used the camera since I got it, and it's already obsolete. And no, I haven't learned how to do any editing yet.
