Kuma Returns to the Grand Mesa, CO

One of many lakes

I hope you found my last blog informative and helpful regarding traveling with doggos. Not every dog is comfortable with adventure travel, so know your dog’s limits and take those into consideration. Even though I turn 14 on the 26th of September, I am still up for exploring! While we were recently in Grand Junction, […]

Canyon View Park in Grand Junction, CO

Kuma at Canyon View Park

  Happy Labor Day! In all honesty, I don’t really know what Labor Day is, but we always have some tasty BBQ, so it is a good holiday in my books.  Dad would normally go for a long weekend overland trip with guy friends, but his back is still healing. He’s doing great, but he […]

Scenic Drive to Carbondale, CO

Kuma with Mt Sopris

Before I jump into my last blog about our trip to the western slope of Colorado, I want to say two things: 1) I still miss my brother, Edmond. This week marks a year since he departed, and our house hasn’t been the same since. He was the best of us. Rest well. 2) Tomorrow […]

Palisades and the Colorado National Monument

Kuma with a view

Today is America’s birthday, and I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than by sharing about this beautiful country we live in. From sea to shining sea, we have amazing places to go and gorgeous things to see. I hope you’ve gotten outside to enjoy it and have a safe and happy 4th […]

Road trip to the Western Slope of Colorado

Welcome to Colorado

I sure get around. Just a couple weeks after our road trip to Nevada, Mom planned a trip for us to visit the western slope of Colorado. Colorado – that’s my home state. I am always up for going to Colorado, especially during the hot season here in Phoenix. Speaking of Mom, I want to […]

Pagosa Hot Springs & River Walk

The Pagosa Springs Resort

This October has been amazing with cooler than normal temperatures. No complaints from me, although that crazy wind blew over our lemon tree. That’s another story. For today, I want to wrap up our birthday trip to Colorado. As I mentioned previously, we stayed in Pagosa Springs. Although we enjoyed hiking and scenic drives, the […]

Kuma hikes to Opal Lake in Pagosa Springs, Colorado

Opal Lake

Yowsa! Fall is really here, and our mornings in the desert have been awesome. It’s that time of year where we can hike locally and go further. Oh, happy days! I’m sure I’ll have more adventures to share, but I wanted to continue what I started last week. Our birthday trip to Pagosa Springs, Colorado, […]

A Birthday Trip to Colorado

Kuma and his family at falls

Happy birthday to me and my mom! Our birthdays are only four days apart, so we usually celebrate both of them together with an adventure trip. I knew we were in for a long haul when dad put the topper on the truck. I heard the word Colorado and got excited. That’s my old stomping […]

Kuma Remembers Horsetooth Mountain in Colorado

Views from the top

Wow! We got snow here in Phoenix. Wasn’t that amazing and oh so pretty? Did you get up north to play? We didn’t get a chance this weekend, but if you did, share some pictures! All this winter weather reminded me of a hike we did when we lived in Colorado. It is called Horsetooth […]

Hiking Grey Rock in Northern Colorado

Grey Rock

Before I jump into my blog, I want to say thank you to all the fire fighters nationwide who face enormous danger to save property, people and pets. This year has been riddled with horrific fires in states like Arizona, Colorado, California and Oregon. It breaks my Shiba heart to know beautiful places have burned […]
