It's hard to rest when the weather is so lovely. After overdoing yesterday, and having a bad night because of it, I decided to just put up the roof extension today. The gravel can wait. It wasn't a particularly difficult job, but work, nonetheless. Where the bench shadow is in this first photo is where the bench had previously been sitting. Because the sun is so low this time of year the bench isn't shaded, but it will be in the spring.

Hard to tell but the roof and extension are flat. The mountain in the
background and weather-shaded canopy in front make it confusing. |
Here's a look at that cluster of Winterfat. Quite the novelty, and not documented for Brewster County before. My sister will take a specimen to Dr. Powell, but it's likely
Krascheninnkovia lanata.
Very few butterflies around. Here's a female Elada Checkerspot. CMO had a lot of them this summer and fall.
Back to Alpine to try to recover. If I stayed at the oasis I wouldn't rest. Good chance of rain Friday.
