One mile mark
by Rachel Creager Ireland
If every view my blog has had were a foot, as of this very moment, my blog would have traveled a mile.
That’s all I have right now. Veronica might write about juncos later, if she gets time. (What is keeping her so busy this time of year? Hm. Maybe pruning trees?)
Kevin’s been prodding me to use images more, so here’s a random photo of a road in Wyoming.

Photo by Jakob Faarvang, who, interestingly, lives in Denmark. What side of the road do they drive on in Denmark? Do you suppose he was aware of standing in the oncoming lane when he shot the photo?
a mile is a long way when you measure with feet…the photo is bleak and beautiful.
sorry for repeats!
Deleted extra comment.
I’d rather see double comments than no comments!
The photo reminds me of the landscape here (though living here, I’d notice subtle differences if I were in that spot), which I don’t see as bleak. Or maybe bleakness has a different meaning to me now that I’ve lived in the prairie for eight years.
