View from the back porch, Day 2

OMG.....you wake up, barely have your eyes focused, you walk out of the camper and look up on the red mountain and you see something moving.  Fumbling, you get the keys to the truck to unlock and get out the binoculars.  Once they are focused , you see a small herd of desert big horn sheep grazing.  By the time you wake the hubby and get the camera, they are gone.  Oh well......


We went on a 2 hour bike ride around the park.   There were 6 low water crossings and a lot of beautiful scenery. Left the park around 11 with Bonny Lake State Park in Colorado as our destination.  How do I say....I have never seen so many sunflowers. We are talking miles upon miles. We talked to a farmer from Kansas this evening at the campground and he said that just a few miles down the road is a really big sunflower oil processing plant.  This was probably a really pretty park once a while back.  The lake is down so very low.  But still, in the middle of nowhere, here it is. Until tomorrow....
