Ah. I think fall is finally here to stay! We’ve had the screen doors open, letting in the cool, refreshing air. In hopes of seeing some fall color, we headed up to Flagstaff for the day. We got up at O-Dark-Thirty, aka, really early to beat the traffic and got to Munds Park in […]
Canyon View Park in Grand Junction, CO
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 […]
A Cool, Refreshing Break Brought to You by Kuma
The Grand Falls, Arizona
We have friends, Russ & Susan, who are always up for an adventure, and this past weekend, we decided to check out The Grand Falls up near Flagstaff, aka The Chocolate Falls. Before you go, it’s a commitment. It is a full 3 ½ hours drive from Phoenix one way, and there isn’t anything […]
Frances Short Pond in Flagstaff
Wow! Those who live in Colorado got snow while we are heating up here in Phoenix. This time of year means we head north more often to cool off, and we did just that this past weekend. Mom is grateful that we are both sleeping better, and Dad is slowing doing better. We hopped in […]
Happy New Year Snow Shoe
The year 2022 is here! What did you do to ring it in? Me and my folks headed up north to snow shoe. Mowgli, who has been with us a full month now, stayed at home. He seems to like water as he will join mom or dad in the shower (weird, I know), but […]
Kuma goes back to Bismarck Lake in Flagstaff
I hope you have been getting outdoors to enjoy our fabulous, fall weather. I truly love this time of year. When we head up north now, it isn’t to cool off but to enjoy the mountains and see the changing of the leaves. With all the wind we have had, though, I think the season […]
Kuma Visits Buffalo Park in Flagstaff, AZ
Wholly smokes! We had entire day of rain here in Phoenix! So much for the Valley of Sun. It was downright chilly for my birthday. Yes, I have officially turned 13, but I have a lot of adventure left in me. Woof! Mom made me some special meals, and I got some great new toys. […]
It’s a Blow Out!
I’m doing something different with my blog today. I’m going to incorporate as many song titles as I (aka mom) can think of. We’ll keep track, and you let me know what you come up with! Are you ready? I am, I said. Let’s go! We were on the road again heading north on […]
Kuma’s Drive home from Utah
Thank you to everyone who has expressed sympathy and condolences to me and my family over the loss of my big brother, Edmond. We are doing okay, but I still smell him. I can’t help but not look for him just in case he might be there. His scent is everywhere, so it will take […]
