Sketchbook pages from my visit to Stebbins last week. I was capturing the usual field notes and making final decisions about where to stop for the exercises in the field sketching workshop I lead last weekend. So beautiful out there! #stebbinscoldcanyon #ucnaturalreserve #firerecovery #fireecology #firecycle #ecoreportage #miniaturelupine #lupinusbicolor #fiddleneck #amsinckiamenziesii #bluedicks #dichelostemmacapitatum #westernredbud #cercisoccidentalis #blueelderberry #sambucusmexicana #yarrow #achilleamillefolium #hendersonsshootingstar #dodecatheonhendersonii #purplenightshade #solanumxanti #houndstongue #cynoglossumgrande https://www.instagram.com/p/BvhPmlYgJhO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ilwt2sfiv1f2

I love walking by myself, but anytime I have to walk with someone else (my parents, friends, anyone) and have to walk at their pace instead of mine, my shins hurt.
