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!

Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.

Thankful Thursday - What a Month!


This week I am thankful for cozy places to recuperate from what has been a topsy turvy October so far. 

At the beginning of October I had my teefies cleaned and, while they were cleaning, they noticed 4 of my toofies were in bad shape so they pulled them. Needless to say, this was not fun! 

But the fun just kept on coming, the Monday after that I didn't feel like doing anything and wouldn't eat or drink. Tuesday, Mama took me back to the Dogtur! After spending the WHOLE day with them poking, prodding, and taking X-Rays, they told Mama I sprained my back! They put me on yucky medicine that makes me sleepy and told Mama I have to stay floor level, and NO WALKIES for SIX WEEKS!

I am thankful that Mama made me this comfy spot to recuperate. I am also thankful that I am feeling better and that Mama will give me elevator rides up (and back down) on the couch to snuggle.

I guess this is what they mean when they say, 
"Getting Old isn't for Sissies"

Thank you to Maxwell and Angel Brian for hosting the
Thankful Thursday Blog Hop

Travel Tuesday - Pagosa Springs



Happy Travel Tuesday!! 
This week, we borrowed some of Mama's phone pictures to tell you a little about the town of Pagosa Springs, where we stayed a few weeks ago!

Pagosa Springs is home to over 200 hot springs. In fact the name Pagosa is based on the Native American Ute peoples name for spring, "pagwoosa". How cool is that?!

The springs are said to have a healing power when you soak in them. Mama mentioned that would be very hard for her to do because they are sulphur springs. This means they smelled so bad it was hard for her to even get close to them. She did say the smell didn't stop lots of other people from trying them out.

We guess Pagosa Springs is a pretty town, even if it is a little stinky.



Plus, it made a great place to stay while we explored the southern Rocky Mountains!

This weekend we are heading out for another ArCee adventure, this time to Gallup, New Mexico. 
We can't wait!!
