Definitely the Road Less Traveled

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #202 Remember that trail sign that I posted yesterday? Well, we thought we were going down the easy way, but it turns out we were wrong. Because D’s activities are soooo limited right now, I ended up doing a lot of hiking to scout out the trail ahead as well as spotting as we went through some crazy areas. D enjoyed himself, but he would have been much happier to go through this particular area at a time when he was feeling 100%. He felt a bit guilty that I was doing so much scouting and spotting…

Project 365 – #200 We’ve lived here over 2 years now, and we’ve seen some wildlife here and there during our exploration. Most often, very little is seen while we’re out exploring.

We were amazed to say the least. I was able to capture…

My family is in from out of town, so I’ll be spending time with my sister, brother-in-law, nieces, dad, and stepmom. We’re having a mini family reunion. Grandma and Grandpa were here a few months ago (which seems like a looooong time ago), and I haven’t seen my sister and her family for over 2 years. Needless to say, we’ll be spending lots of time with them which means not so much online time for me. …

Project 365 – #192 For the record, I’m not normally one to get my pets their own clothing, but sometimes, it becomes a matter of necessity…. Now, occasionally, “puppy” will be given a costume by Munchkin, but he doesn’t usually get his own clothing. On the 4th of July weekend, we decided to go out exploring a little. (More about that with pictures at a later date….) At one point, we all got out to go look at some cool rock formations. “Puppy” wanted to get out with us. Keep in mind that we’re in the Az desert, and it’s…
