Probably doesn't increase my chances of seeing any animals, but I can't resist a solitary smoke in the deer blind.

This morning I am in beautiful Joshua Tree, California; just outside of Palm Springs.
My wife and I came out to the solitude of the desert to let her heal up from surgery (She is doing great!) and get away from the stress of the Open House our realtor is conducting this weekend! With any luck at all the house will be under contract by the end of the week, and we can start our move to Colorado!

You were indeed fortunate to have been there. The Reno and Carson City areas of Nevada are beautiful. Some years back I attended a shooting school sponsored by Remington at the Capitol City Gun Club, and I stayed in Reno. The air in both locations had a lucent quality that I had never before seen, and (sadly) never seen since.

Here in the south, we don't have many trees, so I go to the golf club, a green area with many balls. I mean, to smoke a pipe, I'm not a golfer, because I tried it several times, and I always ended up throwing the club, and not the ball. These photos are from the Rias Baixas, in Galicia. One of the most beautiful corners of Spain.![PHOTO-2023-08-27-19-52-26[12744].jpg](https://pipesmagazine.com/forums/data/attachments/309/309658-6b226284403ecc645063946be3e507b6.jpg "PHOTO-2023-08-27-19-52-26[12744].jpg")

Very cool thread. Still working on how to incorporate a pipe on a hike. Cadence and free hands are a concern. The Warden and I hike pretty quickly and we have to scramble on all fours at times. For now, my backyard oasis will have to do. The bird activity has been amazing this spring and the other night I mesmerized by a bat diving for my smoke!
