Michael 31 Aug 09






Been of line for past 3 days I was fortunate to be hosted by Dick and he has a cabin out of town, it has no computer or TV very peaceful. so what has happened, Sunday we went to Princeton Hot Springs in the morning only 15 min. walk from the cabin, Angela and Emma arrived a bit later in the morning with Dick. Mandy was out with Kym the DOW officer till about 12noon. After lunch Mandy had arranged to go out again with Kym to release two young Coyotes back into the wild and invited all of us to go and see the release so I went the others stayed in the pools. It was fun to see the young Coyotes taste freedom and to fine their way around the wide open spaces, we took Mandy home and Kym and I went out to check on hunters, as hunting season with bows had open on Saturday, while out we got a call from a member of the community that a deer was injured and required Kym's assistance on the way to the seen we came across a large black bear, what a magnificent animal and to see it in it's natural environment was special the deer's out come was not so good unfortunately. Monday saw us have a quiet morning and a presentation to the Salida Rotary Club at lunch time before a 4hr road trip to Durango. The trip took us up over Wolf Creek Pass about 10,000ft. with magnificent views of both sides of the Great Divide. In Durando we meet our host at a hotel in the main street, two actors reenacted an old shoot out in the street very entertaining and a good introduction to this very old town.
