What is spring like in the desert?

Annie and I are not our usual spring-duck selves, what with a Big Dog needing Big Walks during the day.


Jake was sweet right from the start, and a little fixated on our locations at all times. After a few days he started to wag. Today, Annie reports he acted downright doggie on their walk, grabbing a stick and getting twiggy with it.

What're you doing next, Prickly Pear?
I'm going to DisneyWorld!

Do any of you put boots on your dogs for hiking? How about your dog's dogs? What kind?








We've taken him a few places, and he has very good manners. The only problem we've seen is that noises scare him, and then he beats feet getting outta there. He's had some playdates, all of whom proclaim him a dud playmate. He just wants to sit on us.

Taxonomy, tax offa me - I need help with this plant's name.

(not) Palo verde

 
Everything looks like a snake this time of year.


I added all the blocks - how does it look in there?

We're starting to feel New Mexico's enchantment wafting across the border, and we'll succumb to her silky, sandy siren song soon.
