Video of the day: We got up at 5:30 a.m. to take a sunrise walk at the River Fork Ranch Nature Conservancy in Minden, yesterday morning. What a gorgeous place. I have a thing for hummingbirds, so I had to try to get this little guy on video. In the background, you hear the call of sandhill cranes. As we walked, we watched the cranes dance, and also got to witness a calf's first steps. So grateful to live in a place where we can spend a morning experiencing something like this.

Photo of the day: It's not just people, dogs, bicyclists, horse-riders, and mules sharing the trails here in Nevada. While hiking the Pinyon Trail in Gardnerville one day, we got a surprise! He was super friendly, and lost interest in us as soon as he realized we were not packing any pony treats.

Photo of the day: At the top of the Clear Creek Trail, there is a spot called "Five Valleys View." I think maybe I've got them labeled properly in this photo, but don't ask me to name 'em all - I'm nowhere near good enough at geography for that. We shared our rest stop with a little bluebelly (western fence lizard) who didn't seem in the least bothered or impressed by our presence.
