Mom’s Bday trip to Park City, UT

Happy birthday to Moka's Mom

  Mom just had a birthday, and we celebrated by heading to Utah. I’ve been to the southern part already, but this time, we were heading north. Dad loaded the truck up, and off we went on I-70 East through to 40 East. You have several options from Grand Junction, and we chose the northern […]

A Day Trip to Carbondale, CO

A great open space

  Mom and I have been busy exploring the Western Slope of Colorado, and I have many adventures in the cue yet to share. What a great problem to have, eh? This weekend we hosted our first dinner in the new house. I was ecstatic because it was Travis and his girlfriend, Blake. Travis helped […]

Snooks Bottom Open Space in Fruita

In search of fall color

  I have never moved before. Wow, it involves a lot of people in and out of our house! Lots of noise, dust, and it has kept Mom and Dad busy. We aren’t done yet, but we are making progress. How do I know? Because we have been able to do more fun adventures. This […]

Devil’s Canyon

A new hike

    I knew nothing but Arizona since I was born in Whitman, and I loved every minute of living there. I must say, though, that I am digging (literally and figuratively) Colorado, especially Grand Junction where we live. Our neighborhood has incredible hikes, and all we need to do is walk right outside of […]

Steam Boat Springs, Colorado Aug 2026

Moka's second birthday trip continues

  I hope you have enjoyed a restful Labor Day weekend. We took several walks and hikes. Mom and Dad did lots of work around the house, though, so I don’t quite understand the purpose of a non-work holiday. My brother and I rested enough for the entire family, so I guess we are good. […]

A Birthday Trip to Steamboat Springs

Welcome to Steamboat Springs

    My birthday came and went, but we didn’t stop celebrating it! Mom and Dad said they are going to turn me into a mountain dog, and I am game! Steamboat Springs was our destination…an easy 3 ½ hours from Grand Junction. You have several ways to go. We chose to get on I-70 […]

Moka Turns Two and Hikes Little Park

Moka on a new trail

  Dad has been traveling a lot on business trips, so when he was gone during my birthday week, I didn’t expect much. I should have known better! Mom outdid herself and gave me a great second birthday. The week was filled with walks, runs, hikes, and on my actual birthday, Mom took me out […]

The Grand Mesa

Moka hikes with his folks

  I love visitors! Besides getting extra pets, we usually go on some fun adventures. We aim to show guests a good time, so we took Aunt Mary up to the Grand Mesa while she was here. The Grand Mesa is the largest flat-topped mountain in the world! Whoa, and it is only 40 minutes […]

Colorado National Monument

CNM with Aunt Mary

Wow…what a fun weekend! My Aunt Mary came to visit and celebrate Mom’s birthday early. My folks assure me that we won’t skip my upcoming second birthday, so I was okay with it. Besides, I got extra pets and play time! We have a view of the Colorado National Monument behind our house, but we […]

Riverside Park & Dog Park

Starting over by Las Colonias
