Good Evening,

    It began to feel like autumn this week.  Grasses are drying out and 
turning brown.  I saw a family group of elk at the end of Buxton Lookout 
Road.  Their backs and sides were a close match to the grass they were 
in.  They watched me then started to cross the road.  I turned around 
and they crossed the road again.  Gave me plenty of time to count them 
all.  One bull in velvet, ten cows, and five young ones.  I don't think 
I have seen an elk in velvet before.  His growing antlers were less than 
three feet long.  The various tips were bumps along the way.

    The sun is growing more active.  There have been a number of large 
flares on the back side.  In about a week that area will be aimed in our 
direction.  The side facing us has four areas of activity, one of them 
may send something this way a little sooner.


Please join us on (or near):

    73,
