#AlphabetChallenge #WeekUforUnloved

Melting glacier in #France.

Loved by the people who live there (note the blanket in a futile attempt to prevent further melt) but unloved - enough - by the rest of the world to take meaningful action to stop it.

Sheepherders shelter in the #SierraNenadaMountains

Unloved prompt thoughts... Unloved = human disregard.

But a thing in decay IS loved by the organisms breaking it down, taking it back to ground.

In one way or another, isn't everything loved?

Within the #NevadaCemeteryDistrict - a taxpayer supported operation - we have LOTS of stories about Gold Rush families who lost someone...and here they remained when everyone else returned home to the Midwest or East.

Shadows has been a good week! I'm sad to see it go.

A hole in the ground that lots of people (and a few mules) went down.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekRforRock

Some of my favorite rocks in all of #California. #DonnerSummit with #DonnerLake and the #trainTunnels. It's a place where I've spent a lot of time, mental and emotional energy and most recently helped out at the #DonnerPartyHike event.

Beautiful + harsh.

On a windy shore, near the Arctic Circle, we paused to look at the sheep, tucked in the rocks, under the table.

It wasn't until looking at the pictures later that we noticed the sea creature, hiding in plain view, made of shadow and light.

#DonnerSummit zoomed out to show the terrain the wagons were crossing.

Fun but faint!

These slight marks in solid granite around #DonnerSummit were made by wagon wheels when that was a major mode of tranaport out to #California in the rush for gold.
