Day 63

A nice panorama of Jerome that I took this morning, and stitched together in my new copy of PS Elements! Click on it a couple of times to see it full sized; BACK to return! ~Curtis, Verde much south of /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 62

I stopped down by the Verde River on the way back from the Moonset.  There were a lot of critters there!  Unfortunately, here are the not-even-close-to-also-rans… Those Red-breasted Mergansers, below.
