Glorious desert spring

A wonderful spring hike in McInnis Canyons near Fruita. We were rained out at the end of this hike, got soaked...nice, really.


Jasmine pauses.

Jasmine and Buddy by a pool. I love the rocky creek beds with water in them, like a rare jewel.

Purple desert blooms.

This hike is a 6-mile circle and at the zenith is a cabin for hikers.

Buddy at the cabin. It is fun to read all the notes inside the cabin from hikers past.

View from the cabin.

This is a cool rock formation from the south.


And the same cool rock formation from the east.

More Sabrina


Sabrina is newest love. We have been able to see her every week so far since Crystal got her. Don't want to miss out on her puppyhood because it is so short-lived.


Sabrina with "mommy" at Mica Mine.







I love the contrast of the 2 colors and textures of Sabrina's and Buddy's coats.
