The Mama and Daddy got me this nice T-shirt today. It still is cool at night and since I have very short hair, the shirt keeps me warm. Bay Bay is getting a shirt next week so he can be warm like me. I don’t know what the words say, but the Mama and Daddy think it’s funny and cute like me. Click the picture to make me big.
I wandered around our little patch of desert this morning taking photos. I captured pictures of cacti, critters, rock garden, etc.
My original purpose was to get up on the hill out back and take pictures of the top of the RV to see if there would be any problems installing the new cover we ordered for it. It looks like there are no objects to adversely impact the installation.
The slideshow leads off with “the big guy,” our saguaro cactus out front, followed by Verna’s rock and cactus garden, one of the hidden hedgehog cacti up on the hill, a view of our neighbor’s house on the hill across the little wash, quail and a squirrel snacking on critter crunch, a compass barrel cactus on the hill, beavertail prickly pear cactus in the landscape cover, a place on the hill under a palo verde tree, a desert lizard and another hedgehog in the river rock landscape cover.
Just outside of the specialist clinic wing of the local hospital, you can see a koi pond complete with water lilies and some nice, plump koi fish. Between the calm and graceful movement of the koi beneath the water and the shimmering ripples reflecting sky light, this peaceful pond offers a calming effect to those who come here for health problems.

I went up on the hill behind the RV drive today to hang up Verna’s bird feeders. While I was up there, this little white tailed antelope ground squirrel came out of the underbrush and seemed to be begging for a handout. I obliged the little guy and tossed a few seeds his way which he immediately consumed right on the spot. Click on the image to enlarge.
Here is a flashback to three years ago today just after we moved into the new Arizona House which includes a story by, and a video of, Cabela.
Hi – this is Cabela. I am at the new house with my hoomins and Bear. We don’t have a lot of furniture yet but I do have my squeaky toy and a lot of other toys. I just love to play with my toys and I especially like to play with the squeaky toy. I like to make it go squeak and I like to chew on it.
You can watch me squeaking my toy. The Daddy took this movie of me in the new house while I was playing.
