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 […]
Kuma Hikes Red Mountain in Snow
Mother Nature certainly has a sense of humor. Just when we thought spring was here to stay, winter returned…with a vengeance! My fans up in Loveland, Colorado, got about 26 inches of snow. Yowsa! Meanwhile here in Arizona, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to head north to go play in the snow one last […]
Snow Day in Flagstaff
It isn’t very often that the weather here in Phoenix forces us to change our plans, but the recent rain meant we couldn’t go for our planned hike on Saturday. No worries because we headed up north to play in the snow instead, and that made me very happy! The desert certainly needs the rain, […]
Kuma enjoys a Snow Day in Flagstaff
One of my favorite things about this time of year is heading up north to play in the snow. Every year right before Christmas, we go on an SOS mission: search of snow. This year was a challenge because we have been quite dry. In fact, we’ve only had 15 days of measurable rain in […]
Boondocking Near Marshall Lake in Flagstaff
What a weird year this has been! Between COVID-19 closures and my dad’s truck needing repairs, we haven’t gone camping yet – and it is mid-July! Crazy but that all changed this weekend. Dad’s truck is fixed, and he hooked up the camper so we could head north to cool off. Mom’s goal was […]
