Range Dog


This dog was undoubtedly originally a lost sporting dog, but now he's attached himself to a herd of horses and doesn't really trust people. He's been living with the horses for several years. He's still friendly enough that he'll cautiously approach people, but he won't get any closer than this.

"On little cat feet"


Note that the cat waked in, and out, on the same set of tracks. Toes on both sides of his prints.

Curve-topped spillway speeds Pathfinder

I wondered why there were workmen at Pathfinder this time of year, the couple of times that I've been by it recently.

Natrona County Air Show, 1985



These photographs are both from an airshow in Casper, Wyoming in 1985. The top aircraft is, of course, an F4U Corsair. The bottom is actually a ME 109, sans engine. Both aircraft were owned by the same individual in Casper at at that time, who also owned a P38, a B25, an AT6 and parts of a Spitfire.
