Nice Day to go Topless
We bought our car during the worst drought in California's history. We barely got home when the rains started. We have manage to get out a few times but yesterday was absolutely gorgeous and we were able to put both the top and the windows down for the first time. We live in the boonies. On purpose. The main legal industry around here is cattle ranching. I took some pictures of the area on our drive yesterday. The first one shows Mt. Lassen in the background. Could have called it Mt. Baldy before we bought the car but there is finally some snow.

A short distance up the road you start seeing the first of many miles of incredible rock walls. This is a volcanic area and it is very rocky. Almost impossible to sink regular fence posts. A local rancher has been keeping his crew busy during slower times clearing the fields of rocks and building these walls to keep them in. It is a project that has been going on for a great many years.

I am still amazed by the amount of labor and skill involved in building these walls. You really have to be close to them to appreciate the size. They are at least 5-6' wide and all dry stacked.

A shot of the cattle working pens, and a couple of obligatory shots of the car with the lovely Mrs. Hookalatch driving.
