    cathy weve seen a lot of bighorns but they definitely dont stick out like mountain goats. they blend into the background vegetation and rocks really well. we used to know where to look for them at yellowstone but all changed after the flooding a couple years ago. trails and bridges got...

    cathy older people often lose the thirst sensation and get very dehydrated. everything works better if you're well hydrated. from what you've said before, its probably not worth trying to talk them into drinking more water. but they both should. so hard to get people to do what they...

    cathy its one of those things that comes with the fancy electronic. windshields are lighter these days to help reduce weight for fuel efficiency . we dont own a vehicle without a cracked windshield! this one probably will be pristine briefly. we aren't reckless. it doesnt take a boulder...
