Hunting in the Owyhees



This photo is one of my favorites - it captures the scale and terrain that makes hunting in the Owyhee Mountains of Idaho so unique. The unwitting subjects of this photo are my husband, Greg, and his dog, Jennie, a Vizsla.. Here they are looking for chuckars, on a clear fall day. Later on that same day, Jennie scented one and chased it up a big plateau... and got so far ahead of us that Greg had to fire his shotgun in the air to get her attention.  I think those two would hunt every day if they had the chance!  It's so interesting and fun to watch a dog work with her master for a common goal!

Moo...



At my nephew's house in Washington today... this morning provided the most phenomenal lighting for photographs... so I took some pictures of their cows. Last year we bought a 1/2 beef from them. Not sure I can this year, since the cows are so dang cute. Yeah, I'm a "city girl." From Montana. Ha.

Interesting bit of trivia... my nephew is only 1 year younger than me. My husband is the youngest in his family, and his brothers are much older. One of those funny family stories to tell!
