I miss the American Southwest — the stark expanses of rock and sky, the bright red rock layers, the mesas and canyons. Today I was able to capture a fleeting taste of that along Piney Woods Church Road. As the sun sank low in the sky, I took this photograph of an old fire ant mound (I did not test it for current occupancy.) evocative of a western mesa. Not quite Utah, but not quite the Eastern Woodlands, either.
