Hemenway Park in Boulder City, NV

For years, I'd go hiking hoping to spot a big horn sheep.  I saw tons of lizards and birds but never could spot that big horn.  One day when I was complaining about this, a co-worker told me about this park in Boulder City where the big horn sheep go to graze.  Sure enough, when we drove out there, there they were!  Tons of them, all accustomed to humans, so the sight of seeing these magnificent creatures near the playground with kids playing was pretty funny.  A few weeks ago I went out there again and saw...the babies!  This is one of my all time favorite places in Nevada. I could sit and watch them all day long.

This baby kept staring at me.

Two babies who followed me.

Wild Horses at Cold Creek, Nevada

A friend took me out to an area I had never been before, Cold Creek.  It's a little bit past Mount Charleston, and seems a world away from Las Vegas.  There are wild horses that roam there, and the scenery is breathtaking. I'm a little scared of horses so when they got spooked, I got spooked as well!
