DESERTS-TREES-SUVS
You have just got to love the Desert. If ever there were a place in this world where you can learn to be alone with your thoughts and mindful of your surroundings it's in a place like this. It's no wonder that the Native American ancestors sought out these big skies and open plains. I... Continue Reading →
I am so ROAMSICK! The desert is calling and I'm stuck here killing time making necklaces. If it's not the coronavirus causing a lockdown it's some other crisis beyond our control.

Do you recognize this place? It's another angle of view from the campsite in our header and our first free camping experience.

I've tried to be productive and utilize this time at home to improve my beadwork skills. This week I finished another #Beadednecklace. The earrings to match are still in the works. I made a small error in this one that more experienced beadcrafters will probably notice. Which brings me to the point of this post.... Continue Reading →
Maybe it was the impression that TV shows like The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams had on our emotional development growing up, but it seems that when we spend enough time living among the animals they begin to feel like family. We really enjoy watching their daily routines and how they interact with one... Continue Reading →
