27-Sep-2006 -- Oh, give me a home, where the buffalo roam, and the deer and the antelope play....

Well, no buffalo or deer today, but I encountered dozens of antelope on the Carlin Ranch. I also learned about the famed Como Bluff, home to many, many dinosaur fossils. It was really a cool experience to see (from a distance) the site of the dinosaur fossils that I studied and stared at as a boy in Yale University's Peabody Museum. In a sense, I came full circle. The site is beautiful, wide open range land. Couldn't keep myself from humming "Home on the Range" while scouting the area. This is my very first confluence point. Can't wait to find my second!!!
