Chula Vista, CA
January 3, 2016
The last couple of weeks in 2015 were quiet and peaceful around our home here in Chula Vista. The weather was rainy and cooler and most days were spent dodging showers to walk to the bark park and play.
Just before the rains set in, we did walk several miles of the Florida Canyon Trails...a suggested urban hike on one of the web sites I visited.
As far as we could tell, there wasn't any specific way to go so we twisted up and down, around, and somehow managed to end up where we began.
Another sunny day, we had fun at the beach with the puppies. They love going to the beach and we love watching them have fun!
Jack playing ball is always a treat.

As we were leaving, this Snowy Egret caught my eye.
lazy, rainy days... |
bird watching days... |
and sunny, take a walk days. |

Some of the produce and eggs go to the on-sight cafe here at the KOA.

HAPPY TRAILS!
Glad to read that you are up and about enjoying life with the furkids in the warmer climate.

DeleteWish I could grow some tomatoes in a community garden!
ReplyDeleteThere were still a few tomatoes on the vine Judy...ripe and red even though the vines were all dead. I never had any luck at the land house growing tomatoes...

ReplyDeleteWe've now moved to Mission Bay and hope to make plans to meet up with you two sometime in the next month. We want to check out several RV parks down your way. This next week or so is crazy due to some family stuff going on so I'll be in touch and hopefully we can plan a date!
Happy New Year to you both!
That sounds great Lisa...
DeleteHappy New Year! Jack is quite the athlete, love looking at the pictures of him enjoying himself at the beach. So happy and loving every second of it. The picture of the hummingbird perched on the feeder with the sunlight shining through his wings is so pretty to me. Love how you can see the inside of her wings, so cool! Love yall.....
ReplyDeleteWe love you too Alice! I actually tried a different setting on the camera to slow/stop the wings...those little birdies are so fast! I was pleased with the photos! Jack does love beach day more that anything...
DeleteNice photos. Especially liked Jack's action shots. Happy New Year to you, Joe, & the fur crew.
ReplyDeleteThanks Gayle. Are you back from your trip to see family? Hope Don is feeling better and 2016 is off to a great start. Hugs to Tucker!
DeleteYes, we returned from Indiana on the 31st. It was a good to be home for Christmas. We have put our trip to Michigan & Don's mother on hold for the time being. And, Don is feeling better, thank you.
DeleteGreat pics of Jack - I can feel his happy! Love the different flora you captured as well :-) Thanks for sending the wet to Arizona, we're enjoying it. Safe and fun travels in 2016.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jodee! It's pouring rain here and will linger all week so you will probabally get more....
DeleteWishing you and Joe, a great new year and continued good health and more blessings and more adventures.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to meeting you soon in Tucson.
Love Jack but love the bird pictures more.
Good morning MonaLisa...if all goes according to plan, we should be arriving in Tucson Feb. 1. Can't wait to meet you and Steve.
