Rocky Mountains

They flip fun around.

We're in the Rockies.

Sorry.

I got it.

I want you to understand what that country is like, because it matters.

The Blue Ridge isn't the Rockies and the Hindu Kush.

It's old, worn soft and round over a few hundred million years and covered every inch in trees, oak, hickory, poplar, hemlock, so thick that even at noon the light of the ground is green and dim.

The ridges fold into each other in every direction, and the hollows between them are deep and wet, full of moss and creeks you can hear but can't see.

It's so funny.

He paints the Rocky Mountains, and he grew up in Florida.

I remember sending, the last time I flew over the Rockies, I sent some photos back from the plane.

Nice.

Because I'm like, you know.

Roy was left standing alone in the parking lot, his heart hammering, the cold stone a solid, undeniable weight in his palm.

The next day, Roy was driving through the winding, treacherous passes of the Rockies.

He was exhausted, his mind a tangled mess of disbelief and fear.

He'd tried to throw the stone away twice, but couldn't bring himself to do it.

Pioneering birds have plotted a new migratory route, which now regularly brings them all the way across the continent.

When they show up here in the late fall, they often must endure cold temperatures and even snow, just like in the Rockies.

After staying in our area for several weeks, most of the rufous hummingbirds continue migrating south to the Gulf Coast.

Although the adult male rufous hummingbird bears unmistakable bright orange-brown plumage, females and immature birds closely resemble other species.

So looking at highs potentially mid to upper 80s for that 9th through 15th range, if not a little warmer.

But the warmer than normal trend definitely more pronounced west of the Rockies.

in the 8 to 14 day range.

Precipitation outlook, we are still sandwiched between drier than normal and wetter than normal conditions.

Brought to you and you only by our friends at Frostbrood Coors Light as cold as the Rockies.

I would be having to play the rest of the hole with my wiener out.
