Lovely Desert Views


 
 
This week's weather has been a lot sunnier and warmer than last week! Most of our snow is gone, and Mama took a few drives to see the local desert  scenery!
 
 

 
 Remember the Cholla Garden Arty and Rosy visited in Joshua Tree State Park last year?
 
 

 
 Well, they dot the landscape around here! Mama is a bit obsessed with them, and can't wait to see them bloom this Spring.
 
 
 
Mama got out a took a couple of pictures of the landscapes
before the snow melted...
 
 

 
These are the Sandia Mountains, they are very close to our house. We can't wait for Mama to take us exploring up there when it gets a bit warmer!
 
 

 
 There quite a few of fun places and trails we are going to get to explore!
 
 
 
 
Did you know they have volcanoes in New Mexico???  
 
 
 

 
This is one of five inactive volcanoes that are close to our house!
 

 
They have a great big park and Daddy said we can all go there and hike in the Spring!
 

 
 
 We hope everyone gets out and finds some local 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.

  13. Those cactus are really something. Have you guys gone up the tramway to Sandia Peak yet? Such an amazing view of ABQ. I took it once when my sis lived near it. It's fabulous and I'm a bit jealous of your good fortune to live there. Such a pretty area.

  15. You pups be careful not to get too close to those cholla - some of them are called "jumping cholla" for good reason !
