Royal Flusher's Daily Vegas Pic - Sept 6, 2017 - Red Rock Canyon

September can be a time of renewal, a time of new adventures, and a time of letting go as young ones become older ones and move on with their lives, perhaps to some distant school.

When I spotted this little fella at the Red Rock Canyon Visitor's Center, I had to get his photo.

It was as if he was standing in the safety of a protected structure, but with the world at his feet when he was ready to turn and look, and take those first careful steps gingerly into his life's adventure.

Turn around and you're two, turn around and you're four, turn around and you've beat the spread.

Or, he might have tumbled headlong down the stairs and ended up dealing quarter roulette at a seedy North Vegas casino.

But it's still a nice picture.
