US National Cemeteries that you might have visited today are listed here. In RMSBA’s region, Colorado has 3, New Mexico and Arizona each have 2, Wyoming and Utah each have 1. I visited the Idaho Springs Cemetery, where a number of veterans of many wars are interred, and Golden Banner saluted them from the road’s edge.
Spring in the West. All the high desert early bloomers are hard at it on the Colorado Plateau. Any old highway rest stop has something blooming around the edges. Miss no opportunity to catch a bloom or observe an interaction with a pollinator or herbivore. It’s endlessly fascinating.
