This is really an interesting image, Joan. I assumed it was a favorite Pistol-Practice spot.

It took me a minute to understand that it was probably flash-flood waters that "carried" the cans down to this place, and not people. (Like, why would they 'carry' cans that far only during a rain-day? lolll) #1225886
