Fire damage takes a while to resolve the forest. Were the trout streams silted up or have they had time to clean out the silt? I flew a Bell 212 on the Yellowstone fires fighting the fires that really damaged the forest and later flew the fertilization and reseeding attempts resolve the some of the damage. A lot of trout streams took several years to come back. Beautiful photos!


Spring runoff generally cleans the rivers out each season, some of the larger fires do dump a significant amount of ash and sediment into the streams. As we all know, nature has a strange way of working itself out.
 
Hit a very remote area in the Sawatch Range.

I know it’s been said before, but these things really do like being driven.
I’ve taken it out more this past month than I think all of last summer.
The carb is mostly cooperating-it’s only died a few times but hasn’t had the high idle thing yet, that I can recall.
My right turn signal indicator in the dash started working after 5 years.
It’s hot starting pretty regularly without fighting me.

Today I swung by the church to look at a dimmer that needs replaced, then went to Home Depot for said dimmer and some blinds, stopped at a friend’s, and finally home. Probably only 40 miles but it’s getting less stressful each trip.

I rebuilt a 1979 Toyota FJ40 power steering box today for a friend. It was an exercise in persistence, patience, and attention to detail. It is as good as new... at least I hope it is!! :rofl:

I overlooked this place. Did the loop in cades cove when my nephew visited a few weeks ago. No top + windshield down. Saw some bear cubs playing and tons of deer.

All credit goes to my wife. What you can’t see is how impatient I’m being because we were losing light!
