The Camping Trip


Exploring Jesmond Rd and Deadman-Vidette Rd


The camping trip was surprisingly snowy for a time. I was grateful for my shaggy fur coat.              Forest, pines, sage, mountains, streams,  lakes, meadows, ranches, rocky cliffs, waterfalls, red dirt, hoodoos, cows, bluebird, deer, horses, larkspur, coyotes, tanager, momma bear and baby. Exploration is a feast for the senses.

When the snow was done, we got to have the mud. Howie and I didn't care. We just love to GO!










The campfire sculpture is pleasing to the eye and to the soggy body of a tired pup.

casual


The casual life is the life for me.

Projects, schedules, deadlines,
phone, fax, email,
reports, meetings,
planning, implementing,
going, coming,
people, machines.
Human words, every one.

Fetch, chase, nap
kibble, cookies, bones,
hiking, sniffing,
outside, inside,
belly rubs, play.
Words of a pup,
living life well.
