Autumnal Archive Aaaws

It's always nice to have a room with a view, like this pretty room we had when we went to the Rocky Mountains in CeeCee!


This week we'll be archive diving to bring you some fun Autumn and Halloween photos.

Southwest Staycation Nature Friday



Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville.  
In September, the pawrents got to go on a staycation for Daddy's work.  Although they were only a few miles away from home, Mama found some fun southwestern nature.

The weather was just starting to cool off, and the skies were beginning to get that "Autumnal" look. You know. the look, thin clouds with peeks of sun.

There were still a few blooms to be found, like this pink succulent flower...


and these pretty orange trumpet vine blooms almost posed for Mama.

They had some cool sculptures in the courtyard too

Look at these pretty deep red leaves and cute little blooms

These purple blooms of the chaste tree really stood out against all the green leaves

There were some fun old time wagons around, just like they had in the old west...


We'll wrap up this week with this pretty southwestern scene featuring the Sandia Mountains

Thanks for joining us for a little look at some of our local southwest scenery.


We hope all our friends get to experience some nature this weekend.

Thankful Thursday

Autumn is our favorite time of year. We can sit outside as long as we want without Mama making us come inside because it is too hot or too cold.

So today, on Thankful Thursday, we are thankful for the warm sun
....and cool breezes!
 
Thank you to Maxwell and Angel Brian for hosting the
Thankful Thursday Blog Hop

Cat and Mouse

Mama put out a seed block for the wildlife in the backyard to come by and munch on. Sneaky Mama also put TC out to spy on the critters when they come check it out.

Can you believe the first critters we saw visiting were these natural enemies?! TC caught some fun footage of the mouse and cat playing cat and mouse (see what I did there?? BOL :)

Happy Little Bugs



This week, to celebrate Happy Tuesday, I found some fun and happy photos on Mama's phone that made us smile. We hope they make you smile too!

Back in August, the pawrents visited the NM State Fair. While they were there, they found some happy little bugs....

VW Bugs, that is....
The flowery one was my favorite. Just look how cheerful it is!

Mama liked this red bug, it looks like it's all ready for a day in the California sun!

This roly poly VW Vanbug caught Mama's eye and may have been the happiest bug of all!
(Mama used to drive a roly poly Vanbug back in the prehistoric days when she was in highschool) 

Which bug is your favorite???

Nature Friday - A Ride to the Divide

 

Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville.  

Before we get started, I wanted to thank everyone for all the well wishes. My back is feeling a little better every day and I am almost done taking all my meds(which make me feel wonky). Nobody is sure how I hurt my back. I have always been what Daddy calls, a "leaping gnome" and jump down from the bed, the couch and other places humans think are too high. The pawrents think I may have landed wrong after one of my leaps.....
Needless to say, Mama says I won't be leaping anymore.


Anyways....today, for Nature Friday, we have some leftover Colorado pictures from a ride the pawrents took to see another part of the Continental Divide.
Mountains through the raindrops.....

Wet roads and blue skies

Cloudy views

The Continental Divide 

We have seen the Continental Divide in New Mexico, too.

A view from up high....

Autumn colors on the ride back....

...and the Harvest Moon to wrap things up!

Thanks for joining us for a last look at our Pagosa Springs and Colorado trip. Today we are heading to Gallup, New Mexico where there isn't as much nature but there is more Route 66 stuff!!

We hope all our friends get to experience some nature this weekend!
