Reading Poetry to Conchas Lake

We recently went camping to Lake Conchas Dam in eastern New Mexico.This is an area I've wanted to visit because it's near the Goodnight Loving Trail (although the dam wasn't there then) and also because it's near an area called David Hill under the town Mosquero New Mexico. The lake was also mentioned in this month's New Mexico Magazine as having the most shoreline-per-camper of all the lakes in New Mexico…which, in this empty state, is really sayin' something.

So I was able to add two new photos to Reading Poetry to Animals and Things that Don't Care: I was snubbed by both lake twigs and my own shadow.

It's rough out there.
