Spring?

Well, that was enough fun for this week....

The weather service issues red flag warnings when the wind is particularly strong. That means you're not supposed to start a fire when there is a red flag warning . Obviously this system didn't work as well as it should have.

It's hard to believe that 3 days before the fire started there was snow on the ground; and that Wednesday evening there was snow on the ground again.

The fire fighters were fantastic. Many thanks to you all.

Spring?

Springtime in the Rockies.

Luv, Duff and the devil

Luverboy decided to have a little nap with the red devil squeak toy.


Duff decided this was just an invitation.....


Luverboy decided nap time was over...


...and the tug of war began....


It looked like a stalemate for while...


Until BB decided to "help" and as so often happens the "help" kindof spoiled the game... at least for Luverboy.


I don't know about you- but to me that certainly looks like one smug corgi.



Very smug.

sopris buffalo

This one's a little hard to see as it's so far away ... but the saying is that Spring is on the way when you see the buffalo on Sopris. The buffalo is just starting to emerge on the far east peak (left side of picture). If that weren't enough I saw the first ground squirrel of Spring today. That little darling tunneled through 2 feet of snow to sit on the drift and chirp at me. Ginny was too tired to chase him and the other 3 don't have a clue what a ground squirrel is yet. They will soon I'm sure.....

spring frolics

The snow is starting to get soft all over so I break through but the hellboyz and Duff do not.


Ginny seems to be enjoying the walk and some sun.
