rush hour in creede, colorado








so, we were coming home from the valley last night about 8 and somebody flashed their lights, so, assuming there was some sort of wildlife, andy slowed down a bit. the elk have been moving down because of the cold weather so we were looking, looking, looking, and then we came around the corner and saw this....only in creede would you come across 500 sheep in the middle of the road at 8 o' clock at night.

explanation - the sheep herders from the valley use the BLM land up here in the summer for their sheep to graze, but once the weather cools off, just like the elk, they move 'em down for the winter.

it was actually really neat.
