Spouse and I hiked this 5 mile roundtrip hike this morning. We enjoyed lunch at the edge of Frijoles Canyon. Spouse considered this a hard walk but it may be that he didn't eat enough for breakfast. I was happy for the company.
At the beginning of the hike, we spotted 4 deer in a meadow. Of course, like all the deer around here, they stood and watched us from the shadows of some young ponderosa pines. Elk, when we see them, have more common sense and quickly flee.
Later, I noticed the aspens cast shadows across the trail and true to their names, quaking aspens, the leaves' shadows shivered in the wind. We didn't shiver, though, because it was a lovely, warm day. Not much in the way of clouds although we saw some interesting ones with their bottoms shredded into veils.
