Perfect skies this weekend for a nice, long run. I am constantly inspired by the beauty of my rural valley.

Spent the weekend dreaming up the prequel for Treasure Island I've always wanted to read. I started the idea a year ago, but abandoned it for another. Should I keep moving on this one?

Spotted this little noise maker Sunday in the canyon west of Rochester Panel, in Emery County Utah. The Canyon Wren has such a distinctive song that it can’t be mistaken. What a nice desert treat.

Today on my hike I saw Sandhill cranes, one canyon wren, lots of corvids, horned larks, and some red-winged blackbirds, among many others. Added one to the journal. I will never catch up :)

The weather was perfect, and we had the place all to ourselves.

Today I hiked to the Rochester Panel to explore the past. What an amazing experience to stand so close to history.

On my walk today, I saw so many birds. Thought I’d sketch a few in my journal. Black-capped Chickadees and Cinnamon Teals were abundant. It was nothing short of lovely.

I spotted this beautiful desert bighorn sheep. I was all alone in Cohab Canyon and looked up to see this beautiful ram sunning himself. It was honestly an emotional moment of awe. Not a great shot, watch to the end and you'll see him.

Had a blast exploring Canyonlands National Park this weekend. Talked a few tag-a-longs into joining me this time :).

Took a quick drive to Snow Canyon State Park in Southern Utah to visit some lava tubes and the petrified dunes. It was a little crowded, but still good for the soul.

I snuck away for a bit and enjoyed my backyard. Living in Utah is a cheat code for day hikers. I don't experience awe enough in my daily life, but the Goblin's Lair cave delivered exactly that.

Trying something new - but also something REALLY old at the same time.

Welcome to Oakville.

Yo ho ho! A page test for my next graphic novel. Not quite there, but warming up :))

Guess it’s time to give this a try. Hi, I’m Dustin and I make stuff and tell tales. Looking forward to meeting a new crew.

Be warned. There will be a lot of pirates in the future.
