California Dreamin' on Nature Friday


Welcome to Nature Friday, where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. Here in New Mexico, the only colors we seem to see this month are browns, tans and grays with a sprinkle of dull green. Of course, we do have pretty blue skies. Although I wish the skies would turn gray and snow on us.

Anyways, all the lack of color has Mama day dreaming of the pretty scenery we had in Northy North California....

There was so much green....

....and pretty Redwood trees lining the roads.

We got to see whales right from the beach...

There were LOTS of birdies to chase

...and Sea Doggies to bark at/with.

...and, of course, there were a bunch of Elks!

There were also a ton of pretty colors,

From dreamy sunrises

Hills filled with lupine flowers...


and the most beautiful Dahlia Flowers...

We do miss all the beauty of Northy North California but we don't miss all the rainy days and the having to drive a whole day just to go to a department store and back.

Plus, there were no squirrels to chase in our California backyard!

We sure hope everyone keeps warm this weekend and gets to see some Nature too...even if it is through your windows!

2026 Travel Planning

 
It's that time of year where we usually do our annual trip planning for all of our RV adventures. Unfortunately, it seems that the pawrents already planned all of our ArCe weekends.

Can you believe they didn't even ask our input?! 

So....when Mama asked for our help making reservations???
Zzzzzzzzzz....



Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....



What's that Mama, you had to make all the reservations by yourself???

Oh well,
Rosy and Sunny say:
"They who makes the decisions, make all the reservations"

We are happy the pawrents planned an RV trip almost every
month starting in March! 

HURRAY!!

Backyard Chill

 
Welcome to Nature Friday, where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. Today, we are taking you on a Winter tour of our backyard. 

The skies have been blue here in our corner of the world. 


We had a rainy cold front come through last week, with temps staying in the 30s during the day and dropping into the twenties at night. It made these pretty icicles.


Mama turned off the fountain so it wouldn't freeze. 



This week the days are warmer, almost 60F degrees. 



The plants are getting confused....this little forsythia bloom thought it was Spring.


Some of our plants still have their seed pods attached, like the lilac bush... 


....and Mama's favorite, the Texas Yucca's seed pods!



Thanks for joining us on our backyard tour. January is a pretty quiet time for nature here in our corner of Blogville.

We hope all our friends enjoy some nature this weekend!

From Mama: We are away from the office today and may not be able to comment. We'll catch up with everyone Monday afternoon!


Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.
