Pretty Bear

The Mama sprayed me with the skin stuff and then brushed me. I don’t like getting sprayed but the Mama and Daddy tell me I’m pretty after I get brushed. I like getting brushed. I like to take naps too. I guess I’ll go take one now.

Fixing the Wall

Our neighbors are doing a face lift on their home. As a part of that work, they were kind enough to offer to fix an eyesore. A few years ago, a car went over the curb and hit their wall. They repaired it, but the patchwork was clearly visible on our side of the wall ever since the incident. Today, the neighbors’ construction crew put on a coat of concrete. In a few days, they will paint it white to match our fence and gate.

Pink Cholla

Cholla flowers also come in a pink color as well. I took this shot in front of a little hotel we stayed in while visiting Joshua Tree National Park last week. Click on the image to enlarge.

Kitchen Kabuki

The Mama calls it “kitchen kabuki dance” when I go back and forth. The Daddy calls it “freakonnoitering.”

Sometimes I get tired going back and forth so if they don’t bring me a treat, I go and take a nap. If I do get a treat, I eat it and then go take a nap.

New Neighbors

Earlier this month, we drove to Arizona to the town where we’re planning to relocate. While we were there we saw some of the neighbors on a hillside waving at us. Click on the image to zoom out.
