Looks like spring is sprunging... Sure is fun seeing all the colors of spring, now if we could just do it without the pollen... ;)...

The ducks are still hanging around. They are funny, the only time they fly is when we go outside, then it is just a short hop. It cracked us up when we saw 2 ducks waddling down our driveway from the street.

Suzi wanted more light in the workout room. This is the old light fixture.

This is the new one I put in. it takes 68watts, and boy is it bright! The box says it is equivalent to a 200watt bulb.

Great Sunrise!
It is moments like this that make us just love it here... of course the pic does NOT do the sunrise justice!

Not much happening, just taking off some wallpaper. Taking it slow, and doing a little at a time. Felt good working on the part that looks like Christmas wrap...

Some of the roads are closed with water over them. Pretty minor stuff compared to last fall.

The Pineapple Express is back... means lots of rain, and warmer weather. With the snowpack in the mts melting and the rain it is causing some minor flooding. Sammy is taking full advantage of her extra water.

Been busy, busy, busy...
The day after the puppies left, Joe called and he and Carisha wanted their Guinea Puppies back, and were hoping to have me help move some stuff... Since it was sunny out, and there was rain forecasted for the next week, I dropped everything, and took the Guinea Puppies over to them.

bye Smudge

Turned out they didn't find a place to live, so... they went back to the campground they had lived a couple of years ago. My photos aren't the best since it was getting dusky by the time we got out there, but this is the road to their site. It is a single track dirt road going up the side of a steep hill/mountain... I felt like I was on a logging road.

The site they were in while living in a tent was available, and there is a wood shelter. 2 walls have plywood. The blue tarps in the photos were there already, and they brought the green tarps. It reminds us of some of the substandard housing we saw in the hurricane regions.

I was getting a kick out of seeing all the pets they have now. I think Carisha was happy to have all of them back together again...
Wax the turtle sure is fast compared to Alice the bearded dragon.

I was able to get a shot of Wax while he exercised.

As I was looking around the new digs I noticed they had something weird in the rafters... upon a closer look it turned out to be a small bat hanging there.
We were concerned it was dead, so I blew on it, and no it is alive. It was still hanging there when I left...

Looks like spring is coming! Some of Suzi's bulbs are peeking out. Our frogs are having a great day today. It is supposed to break the 60F mark, and they are singing about it!
Today was bittersweet. We took Bandit and Jacques down to be with Mike. He is taking Jacques, and his friend is taking Bandit. It was really cute seeing how Jacques was looking at him so adoringly upon meeting him. Like they were meant to be together! We really miss them already, but know this is the best for all. Here is Suzi Trying to make the puppies lap dogs one last time.
