And following Breaking Bad I'm short of entertainment, never responsibility, but I'm using this to hide from it. Breaking Bad, amazing, the ending not entirely unexpected, but true to the characters and not as cruel as the writers could have made it. 5 Stars, and for a moment, a couple of moments, I'm bereft, back to the European Art House, but memory's a tricky thing, and eventually it comes to me how this all got started - the trailers for "Better Call Saul" - and I watch the first season. There's only one season, this saves me from myself. And, written by Vince Gilligan as well, it's predictably great, introducing the character of Saul Goodman (AKA James McGill, AKA Slippin' Jimmy), as well as fleshing out some of the characters from Breaking Bad - the sociopathic Tuco and Mike, the "protection man". Season 1, 5 stars, now to get some work done...

A variety of pictures taken in the field. mostly improved by Google Auto-Awesome, which I have to say remedies my photographic skills considerably...
Creek:
Charming place, but hell to pan on and most of the yield seemed to be garnets (big and bigger, though, there's hope...)
And upon the field trip, breaking open a rock to discover a Western Skink hiding in a crevasse, probably a bit stunned as it took a moment to pose for my picture....
And a final random photo of a mine improved by Google Auto-Awesome...
