Another gorgeous hot day in the Basin. We are preparing for a rainy day tomorrow and no solar. We will prepare some snakkies in the solar cooker today to munch on tomorrow. But first, we go to town- Maybell, CO population 74. We get gas, ice and take advantage of the showers ($3). We do shower in the trailer, but there’s something about showering in a real shower that’s positively decadent. (Oh, and real flush toilets!)
We saw Comet Neowise last night It’s getting less bright, but it was amazing to see. We did not get any photos… that we know of since the photos need a lot of post production. Maybe we got lucky.
Who names horses? Well at Sand Wash, who never finds the new foal gets naming rights. Cindy was kind enough to allow us to name a new foal and since Karen and I have named a few already- we passed that on to another horse lover Sarah Broas. She named the new colt in Bronze’s band ‘Argon’ (as in the noble has) and his dam is Reyne. We got tons of pictures on the good camera, but here is a cell phone picture.
Here are some more photos of horses we saw today.
