Travel: The Chevy Half-Truck

Robert writes, "Leaving Rocky Mountain National Park, we drove West towards Utah. Our plans were to visit Dinosaur National Monument which happens to be in both Utah and Colorado. On the Colorado side, we visited the scenic drive to Harper's Corner. Of course, this Ranch, with its 'yard ornaments' delayed the arrival to that destination...just a wee bit.
Out of frame, behind me, are a couple rusted vultures on the posts to the ranch's entrance. Beyond that, a metal stagecoach with a team of horses, rhinoceros, maybe more; but what caught my eye was this truck, with a Homer Simpson caricature, vulture and off in the far distance a wooly mammoth!
This photo became my favorite of the trip! For me it gives the feeling of being in a race with the truck, heading towards the horizon, with the fence whizzing by." Comments | Permalink Raccoon Summer becomes Raccoon Fall

The Philadelphia Metro Wildlife Center dubbed 2025 the Year of the Raccoon by chance, but it's also been a year of the raccoon in Kentucky, if CM photos are any indication. This small raccoon was spotted fishing or maybe looking for mussels along the shoreline earlier this week. Comments | Permalink Lindsey Wilson University honors students
