Tim Ernest is a photographer who lives in the mountainous area of Newton County, AR. He took this photo of the Boxley Elk herd. In 1981 the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission stocked an elk herd of 112 there. They thrive today. Our elk were last found in this area in 1840. Now, one can sign up and a few people will be allowed to hunt elk each winter/fall. One can drive through the Boxley Valley and usually see them grazing in the Buffalo River Valley. The herd has about 450 elk today.
There are cirrocumulus clouds. They appear in ripples and are called a mackerel sky because they resemble fish scales. When I walk if I get tired of looking at the earth, I can study the sky and be intrigued. It’s Friday, happy day for all those that labor and toil as the weekend has arrived. For me one day runs into the next and I forget where I am.
