1. the journey up, as we leave behind, for at least hours and most happily days, the things that press us and worry us.

It's September, and we have been feeling the chill of it--up here, it's maybe fifteen or twenty degrees cooler, sometimes, than in Salt Lake--but there are still birds enough to give us a few thrills.
Beautiful bird pictures. Obvious effort taken to get them. I think you took a picture of a Sandhill Crane which looks a lot like a blue Heron.
