Once the monsoon rains came the whole forest greened up and flowers of every kind were blooming. Lots of Orange Mallow flowers and lots of different yellows, reds, purples. Everyone said it was the greenest and prettiest it's been in years. One old timer from the area said "It's so green it hurts your eyes". All of the critters are happy with so much to eat and lots of water holes full of water.
This pronghorn was all by himself. Earlier in the year we saw two of them together all the time. Not sure what to make of him being all alone.
We said goodbye to Clay Springs and are on our way to Quartzsite for a month of gold mining. It's still hot there so we will only be able to go out early in the mornings for a short time. We spent a few days in Williams, Arizona by the Grand Canyon. Friends were staying there so we stopped and visited with them. It is nice and cool most of the summer in Williams, like Clay Springs, because of the altitude.
We are now in Kingman, Arizona for a few days starting to adjust to the heat. We love the Kingman Airport Cafe for breakfast so we had to get at least one breakfast while we are here.
