Monday usually means mom and dad go to work but not today. It’s a holiday to honor a great man, and we spent it going out on an adventure. We packed up the car with hiking gear and a picnic and headed north on I-17. We went just past the Sunset rest area to […]
A Poem by Kuma the dog
You may have noticed that I didn’t post an adventure on Monday like I usually do. Mom was working this weekend, so we didn’t have a big adventure. We thought we would take a stab at a poem together. Mom has been writing poetry since she was a little girl. I’m pretty new to it; […]
Happy New Year from Sedona, AZ
I must say I kind of miss the holidays and hanging out with my family. My folks had time off, so we were able to have mid-week adventures along with our weekend activities. I got spoiled, but when mom packed up all the Christmas decorations, I knew that meant going back to normal soon. We […]
Watchable Wildlife Trail – Kuma goes snow shoeing in Flagstaff
Christmas in Arizona is a little different than when we lived in Colorado. Wintertime in Loveland, Colorado, is cold and snowy most of the time, especially around Christmas. We started a Christmas tradition of snow showing that we have done for 11 years now. Finding snow in Arizona is usually a challenge due to our […]
A Kuma Christmas
My mom has been listening to Christmas music since mid-November. She loves this time of year and decorates the house everything Christmas. I must admit, I am getting excited as I await Santa Paws. I’ve been a very good boy this year – well, mostly a good boy. Okay, okay so I ate some dirt, […]
Kuma takes on Dixie Mountain
I’ve always been on the tall side for a Shiba Inu. Mom says I take after her and have long legs. Oh, okay. Last vet checkup, though, I weighed in at 38 pounds. That made my mom concerned and sad. She knows being sick all last year affected me, too. We both gained weight as […]
The Art of Racing in the Rain – book & movie review by Kuma
I have been so busy with outdoor adventures that I am behind with my movie reviews. Good thing this book (made into a movie) is timeless. Let me back up and share with you the entire story. I was born in September of 2008. I met my folks when I was only three weeks […]
Kuma is Thankful this Thanksgiving
I hope you had an awesome turkey day! Our Thanksgiving week started off with me going to a special vet. I’ve had two lumps (one on the right front leg and one on the right back leg near my knee) growing that were concerning my mom. She took me to Dr. Grossman a couple […]
Be Like Mr. Rogers & Improve All Relationships
I recently saw the Tom Hanks movie, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, a story about an incredible human being. You didn’t have to grow up with him to appreciate the plot, which is about a reporter’s experience with the man as he interviewed him. I won’t tell you anymore because you just have to […]
Kuma enjoys the Sonoran Preserve
This is the happiest season of all! I’m not talking about Christmas but fall and winter in Phoenix. Oh, how I love the cooler temps that allow us to hike without overheating. You try hiking in the desert with a heavy coat on and see how you do! Anyway, every day I eagerly await my […]
