Greetings from Elk land
We arrived today in Estes Park, Colorado. We’re here at the YMCA of the Rockies because my wife’s company puts on a big yoga conference here every year. This is the first time we’ve all gone, including the kids. We walked out from dinner and were greeted by a trio of elk, just hanging out by the side of the road. The two big guys were locking horns and obviously engaged in some sort of vying-for-the-female ritual. They were all oblivious to the gathering crowd of human gawkers. They behaved as if they owned the place. Which in a way, of course, they do.

I followed a link to your site via your comment about Black Francis, and scrolled down a little bit to see a very familiar site. Spent all of my college summers working at the YMCA of the Rockies… my brother has worked there for 25+ years. This time of year is truly beautiful there - I hope the aspen were putting on their show while you were there.
Evidently, my nephew has gotten pretty skilled at imitating the sound of bugling elk.
Come to think of it, so has Black Francis.
