Big Horn County

Enforced day of non-activity. My lower back pain! 2 days ago sitting sketching on my little fold up camp stool. This time my back truly was sore. Could move very slowly. Anyway, managed a slow walk up the track into the alpine meadow. Certain that walking on uneven surface helped.
We have issues with lighting. Hoping the major hailstorm of a few days ago, did not damage anything. It's possible the storage battery ran dry - but we are parked in semi-sunshine and the battery shows that it is charging.
So, say about to avoid moving most of the day.
Thander storm off in the east. Nothing major I hope.
Hope to some sketching as we drive out on Monday. WY 16 (West) passes through a dramatic canyon Rock strata and colours.
Then westward to TENSLEEP and beyond.
That's it for now.
Then came two conversation, one with Connie, one with the Honorable Camp Host nearby.
Jack: "I sit at our site, surrounded by lodgepole pines, not far beyond, a dirt track into the alpine meadow, then willows and a rushing creek, beyond that, a large meadow, up the further, dense pine forest, and on the skyline, the snow capped BigHorn range.
My question - if we were all back, say early to middle 1700s how much would have changed - if anything. "
Both Connie and Host replied with most similar phrases: " Changed? Not much, in fact very little. "
That has made this trip and allowed for my heart to go skipping through the larkspur's in the meadow!
