Kuma Explores Taos, New Mexico

Kuma at Taos Ski resort

Hello! I hope you’ve had a good week. As promised, I will share about the second half of my birthday trip to New Mexico. Mom’s only experience with Taos was in the 90s, and dad and I have never been, so off to Taos we went. The road to Taos from Angel Fire is super […]

Kuma Celebrates His Birthday in Angel Fire, New Mexico

Driving the Enchanted Circle

  When mom and dad got the suitcases out, I was hopeful that it meant a road trip with me and not an airplane ride without me. Mom told me we were going to celebrate our birthdays, so I got very excited! My birthday is September 26, and my mom’s is October 1. Our tradition […]

Kuma visits a new park

Kuma checks out a new park

This weekend wasn’t very exciting for me. Mom and dad went 4-wheeling, and I stayed home because I don’t like all that bouncing around. Mom made up for it by taking me to a new park today! We visited Paseo Highlands Park off of W Pinnacle Peak Road (exit 217 off I-17). The park is […]

Kuma Conquers Round Mountain in Loveland, CO

Views from Round Mountain

  As I have mentioned before, I am a Colorado dog who lives in Phoenix now. Don’t get me wrong – I love the desert! I just get tired of the heat around this time of year and am ready for cooler temps. Of course, in Colorado the weather can get too cold and stormy, […]

Kuma hikes a new trail: Groom Creek in Prescott

Great views from Groom Creek trail

I don’t think my mom understands what Labor Day means. While lots of folks were resting and relaxing, she picked out a long hike in Prescott for us to do. She heard good things about the Groom Creek Trail, so off went. Originally, we were going to stay up in Prescott and camp, but our […]

Kuma Hikes Horsetooth Falls in Fort Collins, CO

Kuma loves bouldering

This past weekend was house-cleaning day. It’s the day my folks clean up me and Edmond’s fur. I supervise, and my brother sleeps. We didn’t go anywhere, so it gave me a chance to ponder past adventures. With the cloud cover, it reminded me of cooler days back in Northern Colorado. On this particular outing, […]

Kuma heads to Greer, Arizona

Kuma by Little Colorado River

I don’t like storms much, but mom and dad were sure glad when the monsoons finally arrived the other day. We got an inch of rain! The next day, we loaded up the camper and headed toward Greer, Arizona. We traveled once to Big Lake, and I remember it taking forever to get there, so […]

Kuma enjoys Granite Basin Lake

Granite Basin Lake

Can it get any hotter? Mom says it was 130 degrees at Death Valley the other day. Well, duh! Death by heat! No thanks. We’ve been struggling to find places that are cooler this summer, and we decided to give Prescott a try this past weekend. We got up when it was still dark – […]

Lady Moon Trail Near Red Feather Lakes in Colorado

Lady Moon trail

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

Kuma with fall color

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. […]
