Spring. Sigh

Rosie Creek is once again becoming a problem for our trail access! Harumph!




The ladies enjoying our walk:


Oh... SURPRISE! DL and I got hitched while in Hawai'i! I had wanted to wait until we had the professional photos to share, but I thought this was a cool one:

DL liked this designer, and I chose the color scheme because it reminded me of him, and of the spruce trees. I've always said he looked like a spruce tree! Plus, the koa wood will remind us of our Hawaiian wedding. :)

My favorite fuzzy creatures at my favorite landmark:


Walking, walking, walking:


A red squirrel midden! They eat from stored spruce cones all winter, chucking the inedible parts right outside:


Autumn and Linden are horrible and pee on top of them! I always imagine how I'd feel if, say, a mammoth peed on top of our cabin! That's what the scale is like! Only it's worse since the dogs eat squirrels... so it'd be like a carnivorous mammoth!


The sky turns pure blue again, now that winter is over and the sun can fully rise:


Ooohhhhh Rrrrrooooo! She loooooooves snow and plows around in it!





Plowed right out of the camera frame!

Such diversity of paw tracks, from little bitty fox paws to giant malamute paws! There are more paw prints than human prints!


Aaaaaand we return to the couch:


The snow is sliding off our roof, and the birches are budding! Another year has rolled around!
