Pagoda Cemetery Along The Williams Fork

A picture post done at OTC on 11/16/08 that was titled "Pictures And Video From Today". There are also pictures from a museum started by a man that lived here. He moved the Pagoda store to that museum and talk about a walk back in time. I am unable to make these pictures larger so you have to click on them to see them better. At the very bottom is a video of a huge elk named Clyde. Clyde killed a man a few years ago who was feeding him. He was just doing what elk do. That was a bad deal all the way around.


Here is a video just sent to me with people who are not very smart getting close to bull elk in Estes Park. It's scary and some are very lucky they did not get killed as well. 



It was so nice today I should have been wearing shorts. Not much color but I like this area a lot. The rich have found it. This is the east fork of the Williams Fork River south of Hayden,CO.


An interesting little cemetery that rivals any I saw along the Mississippi.





There's a very nice picture of this women on the headstone.





If ever I was to build a house it would have a command post on the top like this one and that's where I'd be hanging out.



This is inside the Wyman Museum.  I had never visited until today and I was impressed. This museum is fun and informative.




One can spend several hours here without any problem.





This guy will be up on Saturday.






A bit of reverse engineering for moving hay. The building on the left behind the muffler was the Pagoda store which was located across the road from the cemetery and moved to the site of the museum.

A 360 degree video showing just where this cemetery sits.



Here is Clyde the pet elk who was bugling  but not when I did this. He is one big boy.

Cycle Of Life

Went to the statue folder for today's post. This group of bronzes is called "The Cycle of Life" are right where I work and I love these things. The bird is not there as it's been stolen at least four times.

I just walk down to these and there is always a opportunity to take a picture. There's flower and insects and light and weather conditions that are constantly changing. I'll be down visiting a bunch this year as well.

We have been known to dress these guys up n Halloween well just because. Cops don't care as they know we'll clean up the next day.

Meet Hahns The Pooch

I like this dog a bunch and he's a pure bred lab seven months old. He minds so well but on a couple of occasions has roamed too far so you know what that means.

Initially his nose was coal black but we think the cold and having it buried in the snow made it so very pink. This is not much of a post but can't get fired up about much when you've had 300" of snow and all there is white.

But for those of you who love the dogs there is something here for you.
