Happy New Year!

It's been a hectic Christmas season for me.  Besides the usual holiday business - shopping, decorating, and seeing family, I had to purchase a new vehicle so that I could continue my desert exploration. 

So, I purchased a new Subaru Forester- and I donated my old Jeep Grand Cherokee to charity.  The vehicle had over 300,000 miles on it, and as one might imagine, I was feeling a little uncomfortable taking it on long trips.

I did find time to take the Forester up into the hills near Lytle Creek on New Year's Day.  That's when I shot the image shown above, with my drone.

Here's to more exploration!
