Mornings have been especially lazy around our house with no hikes to motivate us to get an early start.
Dover ( nicknamed Me)
and Jack (we call him Mini-Me) look so pretty in the early morning sun on the patio.
Early morning trips to the bark park to play...and
chase lizards up the tree!
This sweet little mama dove sits patiently in her nest. She has her nest in the orange tree right next to our patio. I check on her everyday.
And this little beauty, a Verdin, was enjoying a breakfast of insects at the bark park one morning. They don't stay still very long. I heard them long before I found them. Verdins do not migrate. They have adapted to the desert and can derive all the water they need from what they eat...mostly insects and spiders.
Have a wonderful week. There are a lot of folks traveling...be safe!
Until next time, take care and...
Hope all goes well there and you can get on the road again.
ReplyDeleteThanks George!
DeleteIt's always exciting when it's time to start thinking about hitting that road again.
ReplyDeleteWe can hardly wait!
DeleteIt must be really tough to stay out of the sun but well worth the wait for sure:) Good that Joe is being the proper patient.
ReplyDeleteThe dogs are so cute. Sure looks like they are enjoying the dog park. Love the header of Sally:)
I am a little slow for sure. I didn't realize that Lazydays sold the RV park to KOA. I saw your address at the top but just figured it was a different park. Duh!!! We were there last winter for a month from mid Jan to mid Feb. I had the best orange tree next to us (different from the others). We had a great grapefruit tree on the other. I spent the month making juice. The first night we went out and bought a juicer. Boy, we were in heaven. I was making a combo of orange and grapefruit and freezing half gallons for the future. I have marked the site and hope to get it again next year. Before we left I juiced lemons and froze the juice in ice cube trays. I still have some left. Hope the fruit was still there for you!!
Do they still have free USA Today's in the office? Do they still have the same policy that back in sites are for month stays?
Hope you got your Ben and Jerry's...yum:)
The oranges have been especially good this year too Pam!
DeleteThere is a couple across the street in a grassy, deluxe site who have been here for many months. I'm not sure what e deal is there. We have a back in as do all the other monthly stays. I will have to check on the USA Today. I haven't noticed one way or the other.
Thanks, Gay:) Good to hear the oranges were good:)
DeleteI can feel the dog's excitement in your opening photos. It must be great to have such a good dog park nearby for their play time.
ReplyDeleteThe little Verdin is adorable. He almost looks like a canary. Another special sighting.
Cherry Garcia is near the top of my list too. Dark chocolate and cherries are a winning combination.
Hello Pam....it sure makes our day to play with the pups!
DeleteOh, your babies are adorable! And a sighting of a Verdin to beat. Are you heading back to La Grange this summer? Gay, your action pictures depict joy and delight from your boys.
ReplyDeleteHi MonaLiza....the pups sure like to play ball! I'm glad you can tell from the pictures how excited they are!
DeleteWe will not be heading back to LaGrange this summer. Plans include Sedona, Moab and Colorado. We can hardly wait to get rollin!
Glad to hear things are going well with hubby! I hope you get to head north as planned. Love the kid photos, especially - all four off the ground! Aren't the Doves the sweetest looking little things?
ReplyDeleteThank you Sheila! Can you tell I am having camera withdrawals? I sure miss hiking and being outside!
DeleteThe little mama to be is so sweet sitting in her nest. I was hoping to see babies, but I think we might leave before the eggs hatch.
I can tell you're just counting the days until you can roll again. It shouldn't be long now. I think the fur kids will miss the area though, they look happy to be there. Their personalities sure come thru in the photos. The header shot of Sally is absolutely adorable.
ReplyDeleteWe are getting way excited Gayle. The pups will miss the huge bark park here. Although something has happened here with Jack ( the little doxie). He will not play ball at the park. We have no idea why. After he does his business, he heads for the gate. Very strange! And sad for us!
DeleteThat is strange Gay but as you know, dogs have a sixth sense about things. Always trust a good dog's judgement.
DeleteSome photos didn't get loaded! Enjoyed seeing them. They are so cute while play with the balls!
