I know I have said it before, but it is one hot summer! In Phoenix, we’ve had 34 days and counting when the temperature is above 110. That’s just too much for this Colorado dog! I guess that is why I keep reminiscing of days gone by and remembered the Lady Moon Trail near Red […]
Q&A with Kuma
I don’t know about you, but me and my family didn’t do much this weekend. The temperatures are high and the humidity up – even in the north county. There doesn’t seem to be a place to escape the hot season right now, and we keep waiting for the monsoons to start with no luck. […]
Young’s Gulch Trail Reopens in Colorado
Oh rain, where art thou? This is supposed to be our monsoons (rainy season), but we keep getting humidity without the reward. Sigh. About this time of year, I do miss the water in Colorado: lakes, rivers and streams abound. When it is too hot to do much, I find myself dreaming about adventures gone […]
Boondocking Near Marshall Lake in Flagstaff
What a weird year this has been! Between COVID-19 closures and my dad’s truck needing repairs, we haven’t gone camping yet – and it is mid-July! Crazy but that all changed this weekend. Dad’s truck is fixed, and he hooked up the camper so we could head north to cool off. Mom’s goal was […]
A Marathon of a Story
Okay, it is officially HOT! We broke all kinds of records this past weekend in Phoenix: hottest temp for the day, hottest low, and multiple days in a row over 110…and it is only July! I don’t know about you, but I was a total slug this weekend. I didn’t move unless I had […]
Kuma goes Backpacking on the Dunraven Trail in Colorado
When mom got a very small duffle bag out, I wasn’t sure what it meant. I know what a big suitcase means – mom and dad are going someplace on an airplane without me. I know what the camper trailer means – a great adventure for me! I was confused until mom used the word […]
Kuma’s neighborhood has a fire!
Let me start off by first saying: we are safe! Now, let me tell you the story of the day our neighborhood was on fire. It was last Tuesday, and we started the day off with an early-morning hike. My brother and I were lounging around; life was good and normal until… Mom was coming […]
Kuma hikes the Woods Canyon Lake loop trail
Have I told you lately that I just love my life? I’m one lucky pup! My folks are always looking for places to take me in the summer to escape the heat. We took my car (okay, it’s really my mom’s, but she calls it the Kuma Kar so it must be true!) instead of […]
Kuma Hikes the Ocotillo Trail @ 7th Avenue
May marked five years since we have moved from Houston, TX to Phoenix AZ. How time flies! My brother is turning 18 years old, and I am 11 ½. This past weekend, we celebrated Edmond’s birthday a little early. Mom says at his age, he deserves a birthday month. I’m down with that since it […]
Kuma Loves Bismarck Lake in Flagstaff, AZ
Today is June 1, and we’ve had July/August temperatures for weeks now. Eesh. It’s gonna be one long, hot summer. Thankfully, we have the ability to head to higher elevation relatively easily from Phoenix where we can find cooler temperatures. This weekend we did just that and got on I-17 toward Flagstaff. I was […]
