Simple Things

First of all I have a little confession: this is not my picture, but my husband's. Maybe that's why I like it so much. It reminds me of all the times we've spent enjoying the great outdoors. For us camping and hiking is a release from all the clutter and it helps us appreciate the simpler things in life.

Joshua Tree is close to Southern California so it's a nice weekend get away if you are interested. Plus the wild flowers will be blooming soon, which is when this picture was taken.

Miso the destroyer

Every time I check on my dog, Miso, she is passed out in the backyard. So when I find flowers that have been uprooted, demolished drain covers or missing sprinkler heads, I wonder if she is just pretending to sleep.




Since Miso is the subject of this entry I thought I'd post some of my favorite pictures of her. I only have 800 to choose from!

Awwww! It's our little wolf pup.

Clearly she was digging before I took this one.

Her first trip to the snow. They were meant for each other, but we are not moving to Colorado any time soon.
