Wow! I have been in these places. Hunted for 'indian money' where the water gushes out. Actually found an arrow head. It is so commonplace, but when you turn one up out of the gravel bar, it seems amazing. Thanks for the wonderful shots.
I love your photography Dee. That first one really caught my eye with the blue and orange contrast. That part of the country looks so lush and alive and you have caught the vitality brilliantly.
Dan, you need come up for a day or two and just hang out.
Stickup, I'm hoping the rain today and tomorrow will provide the flora and fauna a good drink of water. Although, the vegetation still looks relatively vibrant, the small plants without deep roots were beginning to die.
The progress of social justice is slow and measured. Its growth depends on an increasing number of us becoming aware of the truth and consequences of our actions.
I believe that it is morally wrong to allow our wanton desires to interfere with the basic needs and interests of other sentient beings.
I believe the physical and psychological abuse – confinement, social deprivation, mutilation, genetic and reproductive manipulation, and profit exploitation – imposed by us on other animals is morally wrong.
I believe the suggestion that the exploitation of other sentient beings by humans can be achieved without cruelty, violence, or injustice is false and misleading.
As an advocate for all life, committed to compassion and justice, I refuse to take part in the exploitation of other sentient beings or to collaborate with those caught up in such injustice.
I pledge to do my best to live a life that conveys a clear, sincere and uncompromised message that is free of resentment, fear, exploitation, anger, cynicism, and manipulation.
Furthermore, I pledge to continue to support a broad range of nonviolent initiatives and programs that will hopefully one day eliminate the needless pain and suffering we inflict upon all the many wonderful creatures with whom we share this planet.

Thanks to both of you for your kind words.
