This past Saturday, we headed out to the Desert Hills trailhead off Carefree Highway and 7th to hike the Ocotillo path. Man, the trail was a treacherous mess from all the rain. I am pretty sure the desert had a good drink and needs to dry out now as everything is soggy. Anyway, the […]
Driving Home from Utah & Lunch in Mayer
Today is not Monday, in case you are confused. Mom went to Colorado without me and visited her family. She didn’t get home until Monday night, so she couldn’t help me with my blog. Since we are heading to Colorado soon, I will forgive her. Our last day up in Utah was the drive […]
Hello World!
Hello world! I am happy to meet you. My name is Moka, and I am a sesame Shiba Inu, and you knew my brother, Kuma. As you know, he passed away in June, and I was born in August of 2024. I imagine we would have a grand time together; alas, I’ll have to wait […]
Grief is the Price of Love
I am no stranger to loss, but each one is different. They all take time to process.
Love is a Four-Paw Word
Many of you have heard our dog, Kuma, had a stroke, and we had to say goodbye on Friday, June 21. I still can’t believe he is gone. We went from having an aging dog to no dog at all. It happened all too quickly, but with the active life Kuma led, this […]
Farewell – Kuma’s Last Adventure
This is a difficult blog to write, and it will be my last. On Wednesday night, June 19, something happened. I wasn’t able to sleep, and I just panted and paced. Timing couldn’t have been worse as Mom and Dad were heading out in the morning to celebrate their 26th wedding anniversary in Durango, Colorado. […]
Anasazi Trail – St. George, UT
I hope all the Dads had a great Father’s Day weekend! We kept it low key here. As I mentioned last week, I’m behind on blogging! Mom and Dad went to Southern Utah over the Memorial Day weekend and enjoyed the St. George area. I’ve been before, so I can reminisce in my mind. […]
Steve’s Birthday Trip to Page AZ
Summer is here! Whew. The older I get, I don’t tolerate the heat as well. Stay cool my friends! As I have shared, I have slowed down quite a bit. On good days when I sleep through the night, I move pretty good. If I spend the night panting and pacing, I am wobbly […]
A Bike Ride to the Bullfrog Pond
Hello dear readers! I haven’t written anything for almost two months, and I hope you have missed me as much as I have you. First of all, I am proud to say my Mom did it! She took on a daunting task of a master’s-level course and passed her nutrition certification exam the […]
Spring at Deem Hills
I hope you had a nice Easter. The news folks said it was the first rainy one in 25 years here in Phoenix. Being born in Colorado, I have seen spring seasons like this where one day is warm and the next cold. We call it weather whiplash! Crazy indeed, and the rain keeps […]
