One of the geocaches had a coin in it that said: What would you attempt if you could not fail.
Happy New Year! 2010!

New Years Eve Day Hike, Thunderbird Conservation Park, Trail H-2
Mr. Bosseh-Pants and I went hiking today. We hiked the H-2 trail at Thunderbird Conservation Park. I've hiked West of this area before, but today's trail was new to me. We located several geocaches along the way.
One of the geocaches had a coin in it that said: What would you attempt if you could not fail.
Happy New Year! 2010!

Like Son - Like Shepherd
James is headed home today. Cierra gave the BMW a test ride while James was loading his gear.
"Let me go James, I can do it!"
Cierra sitting pretty.

Me, He & She - Hiking Westwing Mountain
James and I went hiking with my snarky Shepherd today. We started our hike at the dam in between Westwing Mountain and Eastwing Mountain, then worked our way to the top of Westwing Mountain and home. Cierra had a great time running, fetching sticks, and carrying rocks. Cierra is truly her happiest self when she's out hiking.

Polka-dotted rock.

Helper dog is going in with James...
Cierra has a peek inside the small cave.
"What's in here?"
James paused to photograph something but I love the expression on Cierra's puppy-girl face.

I guess dead flowers are better than none.
We found a bed of very old cow bones. Cierra is watching James intently to see if a game of fetch is coming on.

Behind the dam, not a single drop of water here.
Little flowers.
Happy hiking dog.
Cierra is an expert at following the trail but she never loses sight of me. How I love her.
The road goes on and on but here we turn northwest.
Me with my favorite son, at the beginning of the hike.
James couldn't get both of us to look at the camera at the same time.

Peanut butter & jelly sandwich = yum!
Me with Cierra. The water level is at zero. Good thing, or we'd be under water.
Dry as can be. Send rain.

Random Pictures
James and I spent some time in the sunshine at my mom's house this afternoon. I took 100+ photos of everything around me. Here are a few of them:
What color is my hair?
I love this plant.
Love the prickliest ones too.
The flower buds on the plant I adore.
Me soaking up some sunshine.
Cracker, getting a drink from the birds water dish.
The sweatshirt My Honey loves.
Playing with my hair again.
My Asolos, I've hiked many miles in these.
Cracker is warming his horse butt in the sunshine.
Cracker looking sly. He is 27 years old.

James spelled "Strident" using all his letters and getting an extra 50 points to be sure he completely spanked me at this game. Smarty pants.
