big springs (june 1, '09)

fun little hike up by big springs in island park, idaho

so i've noticed i don't really write very profound, deep, thoughtful things really. truth is as i'm hiking or taking pictures i've always got somethin running thru my head. that's kind of the reason i'm out walking. but i rarely remember what it is i was worrying about or mulling over. i think perhaps this hike i was thinking how incredibly freaking awesome nature is.

in the space of about an hour or so i saw a deer chompin on some foliage, a muskrat making a little house along the river bank, a few ducks swimming up the river, a school of fish just coasting around the springs, an eagle with a mouse wrapped in its talons fly over my head and a squirrel collecting a bunch of nuts and trying to carry them up a tree

the day before i saw hundreds of bison treading around the forest, a bald eagle feeding his little chicks, a funny looking raven hopping around scavenging for some food, a lone little fox prancing around an open feild, what else? i'm sure there was more. but how cool is the world. it's neat to stand on a mountain peak and look down. whether it be looking over a forest of trees and rivers and animals, a desert completely void of any living thing but decorated with the coolest rock formations, or the busy streets of a city with thousands of people going in a billion different directions. i think it's incredible that no matter where you are and what you're doing, the world is in constant motion and things are happening; rivers are flowing, trees are falling, animals are zooming around, people are fighting, babies are crying, cars are breaking down. it's kind of cool.

anyway... i'm sure you're not hear to listen to my weird thoughts as of late but rather look at the cool pictures :)

i hope you like them. i sure have a fun time taking them!!!
