Spent the last weekend visiting Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountain again. I wish I could spend more time to see the other caves and trails, but work keeps dragging me back.
I’ve been in a rut lately and this trip was an attempt to remind me of what I want in life.
The desert looks so empty, but there is a subtle struggle for life in a land that denies it. If that makes sense.
Also, this was the first time using my new Nikon D3400. It’s a 24 mega pixle camera, light weight but capable. The contols are weird but I’ll get the hang of it.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Looks awesome! I have done some spelunking at Carter caves in Kentucky. It has some interesting tours, however my favorite part are the cave systems you can get a day pass and explore all on your own. Spent a lot of time there as a kid and I still love it, recommend to anyone!

The Mammoth Cave complex is also a very good one to explore. They normally have a knockout Christmas party there!
@AstralSmoke Thanks, I will have to check it out.
I love caves. Enjoy getting to know your new camera!

Posted by CallMeDaveI've never been a big wildflower person, but this is the season for it here in Appalachia. Other people can identify every variety. I'm not there yet.
