It feels like a good day to be in motion. Maybe a little biathlon’s in order. Start off with a little mountain biking, end with a sunset run. Yes, indeed, that would be a perfect day. Especially if it opened with slickrock and closed with wildflowers. Well, free desktops are good a beginning.

What’s adventurous about this picture? Well, I’m guessing that walking through a field of tall grass in a wispy little summer dress might scratch the legs. And you could lose Toto in the weeds. Otherwise, not so much. But hey, who cares? It’s summer!

Too much work, not enough time…it’s a good day for daydreaming about far-off places, changes in latitude, light that slants at a new angle. Here are three escape hatches, free wallpapers from the Erg Chebbis dunes in Morocco’s slice of the Sahara Desert, the Italian Dolomites near Cortina (in honor of this week’s story on mountain biking there), and a beautiful panel of petroglyphs somewhere in Utah. Enjoy!
Nothing like starting off the day with a freebie. Help yourself to these three desktop backgrounds…locations are Mt. Shasta, California, seen from Heart Lake; Essaouira, Morocco; and Milford Sound, South Island, New Zealand.
To be honest, I’m not sure about this wallpaper thing. I think wallpapers are cool–I’ve found some amazingly beautiful ones posted for free by painters, sketchers, and other artists. But are they really? Or are they just so 1998? Well, you decide. Here are three, the photos are mine, I’ve tried to keep the credit info relatively subtle, and I hope you like them. Locations are Teton Pass, Wyoming; Moab, Utah; and Havasupai Falls, Arizona.
