Here’s a shot directly from the landing, today. Tommy’s loading a truck. It’s a beautiful day out west.
I’ll be back on the “Steam Donkey WIP” tonight with an update.

Forestry Friday … Come Along To The Woods
There is art in the forest no matter where you look.
I had a beautiful day to get out to the woods this week. Here are a few picture to share. No particular theme this time. I haven’t posted a lot of forestry lately, so it’s time to get my groove on. Just click on the gallery to enlarge the pictures
There is art in the forest no matter where you look.
I love my commute. The mountain road is framed by big gray pine.
Bully Choop rises above the surrounding mountains.
Naked oaks
Mt Shasta to the North is the highest point in Northern California.
Big pine on the ridge.
The delimber sits in the landing making logs all day.
One lane only, so pull off and yield the right of way. There’s a future house on the back of that truck.
Knobcone pine waiting to open. They can wait for decades sheltering the seeds inside.
This unit was logged three years ago and is now a young forest.
Douglas-fir and Ponderosa pine seedling planted three years ago.
An alder tree was cut out of the road and it was striking how orange the wood was.

Recent rains have put a glow on Mt Shasta. We aren’t out of this drought yet, but it sure helps.
A San Francisco Day
Lost in the wilderness again.
Back To The Coast
Back to the coast today for inventory. This is the mill I went to. We are all done and headed home.
It’s a long drive and the girls are exhausted.
Gone Coastal
The girls and I are on the coast today. This is part of Humboldt Bay.
Reporting Live From The East Woods
This just in. The sun is shining, the trees are green and the snow is fine.

Whoop…..Whoop!
Sentinels Of The Wind
Some folks are very photogenic and some, not so much. Some days are very photogenic and some days, not so much. This was one of those good days. I love a good day. I try to have a lot of them.
Like sentinels in the wind, the big turbines peer through a window in the clouds.
Magee Peak is a sleeping volcano.
The mother oak looks down at the young pines gathered about her.

With Burney Mountain in the background, Nellie strikes a lovely pose. She is one of my favorite models. Nellie is very co-operative and will work for dog biscuits.
I Needed This Day
Some days I need to experience the beauty in my world. Today was one of those days. Today was exceptional. Here are some pictures I would like to share with you. Today the sun shone warm. Tomorrow a storm is coming.
