A Hike in the Superstitions with Superblooms

Wildflowers galore

  Just when we think the flowers cannot get any prettier, they do! What an amazing wildflower season this is turning out to be. I’m getting ahead of myself, but if you haven’t seen them yet, this might be a scenic drive for you. We set out to go hiking at the Lost Dutchman State […]

A Picnic at Bartlett Lake

Kuma and his family have a picnic with a view

  So many adventures, so little time to tell you about them! We’ve been busy getting outside and enjoying our awesome weather…finally. I have several adventures in the bag already, but I’ll start with a recent picnic we took at Bartlett Lake. From North Phoenix, the drive is just over an hour one way. The […]

The Forever FIT Flower Hike #3

The desert is so happy

  As you may or may not know, my Mom teaches fitness classes at the Glendale Foothills Aquatic Center. Every once in a while, she gets the class outside to enjoy this great place we live. With all the winter rain, the wildflowers are popping, and we all met up at the Apache Wash trailhead […]

Kuma Gets His Nails Done

Kuma is a brave boy

  My mom sure takes good care of me. Besides lots of adventures, she feeds me yummy food and gives me special treats that help my joints. She even brushes my teeth while singing me a silly song because I really don’t like getting my teeth cleaned. Her singing helps. Lately, she is de-furring me. […]

Wildflower Season Has Begun

Spring has spring

    Today is President’s Day. All I know is mom has the day off, and that makes me happy!  Dad took off for the holiday weekend to overland with friends, and Mom’s friend, Mary Horlock, came to visit. She came from Boulder City, NV for a few days. Good thing she had a very […]

A Wintry Day in Prescott

Hiking Lynx Creek

Just when I thought winter was behind us, we have more clouds and possible snow up north. I can tell you we didn’t see any signs of spring up north this past weekend and were surprised to see snow in the Prescott Valley. We wanted to celebrate Valentine’s Day early together as a family, and […]

Apache Wash Trail 2023

Kuma enjoying Phoenix winter

    Folks, this is the time of year to get outside and enjoy our amazing weather. Evening and early morning temperatures are still cool, but the days are warming up nicely. This is when me and my family go local because once the heat arrives, we try to escape it by heading up north. […]

High Desert Park Trail – Take Two

Great views

  Is it me or has it rained a lot this winter? Seems like we are always trying to work out adventures in around the weather. No complaints because we know the heat will be coming sooner than later. I’m just glad my family is able to do adventures. This time last year, they were […]

Epic Snow in Munds Park

Lots and lots of snow

Yowsa! Not only has the temperature been cold, but the state of Arizona is receiving epic snow amounts up north. At our house tonight, we could see snow flurries. What a winter! Anyway, we couldn’t resist all the fresh powder and headed back up to Munds Park to play. We saw on the morning news […]

A Drive through the Salt River Canyon

Driving the Salt River Canyon

What a storm! I haven’t seen this much rain since we lived in Houston, Texas. Wet indeed! My brother and I don’t mind as it makes great napping weather. And when I snooze, I can relive any adventure I want! It dawned on me that I hadn’t finished sharing about our trip to Show Low, […]
