J&L Come to Help

Bringing the trees down
Spencer gets a dove for dinner.
Jay cooks it up with jalapeƱos and bacon, yum.
Our primary class today learning a new talent, sculpting an elephant, or whatever.

Sockeye Salmon


They come up this creek
Can you see them in the water trying to figure out how to proceed?
A closer shot of the Sockeye salmon swimming below the weir.
The weir and the trap.
Resting in the stream after being released from the trap and examined by F&G.
The creek continues.
The mouth of the creek where Redfish lake empties.
Remember playing on this log when it was in the water? The lake has receded.
Our comfy boat ride.
Heaven's Gate, or so they say. I can imagine the second coming happening here.
Bull elk.
Pronghorn herd.

Eating the Elephant

Looking down the lock-ups.                                                                                              
Dad quietly, day after day toiling to open up a little more productive land.






An interesting pile of early 20th century equipment pieces.

Good-bye to some of the lock-ups


Dad, Dean and McKane discuss expanding the field.

Straw Stack


Dad is just about finished preparing to bring the field all the way to the milk cow corral. Just waiting for Jay to come and remove the last two locust trees.

The Bats of Congress Ave Bridge

Cruising on the Colorado river of Texas


Downtown Austin looks like the kids designed it in Minecraft.
Congress Ave Bridge
The slots the bats choose to sleep away the day.
People lined up on the bridge and gathered on the bank and on the water to watch the bats emerge.
And a full moon to boot!

Installing a Pull-out Trash Bin in Austin


And for our photo record: Peaches from the canyon and our grape harvest.
