Saying of the Month


May your stuffing be tasty

May your turkey plump,

May your potatoes and gravy

Have nary a lump.

May your yams be delicious

And your pies take the prize,

And may your Thanksgiving dinner

Stay off your thighs!

Doggie Tales and Wash-outs!

This is "Brucie"... a female stray that we saved!








This is "Hoss", an older full bred Bull Mastiff that our neighbor gave us after our German Shepard died. We ended up LOVING him (except all his slobber). It's a crazy tale.... but one night, a yellow lab, dug into our yard and "convinced" all of our dogs to go out for the night. (Brucie was in heat, but our other dogs are fixed....so we weren't concerned about her getting pregnant). They went swimming in the Aqua duct and ran wild! The only problem was that the two girl dogs came back......but no Hoss! Our fears were confirmed when we found him on the side of Main St.....passed away! Even worse, our neighbor saw him there before we got to him! UUgghhh !!! Now we have suffered a double whammy! Our German Shepard, now our Bull Mastiff! After fixing the hole, we found that dang yellow lab in our yard two more times the next day! Finally, Animal Control picked him up. Problem solved and an appt for Brucie to get fixed! But before we knew it.... we had an unexpected surprise! We were outside in the backyard and I heard DJay yell, "Ewwwe.... Why is there milk coming out of Brucie's nipples?" as he played with her. I thought, "that stupid yellow lab!!!! Not only did he get Hoss killed, he raped Brucie!!!! And NO, it wasn't consensual!" I was not happy! January 14th.... Brucie became the single mother of 4 baby puppies! They sure are cute, though! ;)


Puppy #1, (a keeper)
She is brindle and we are going to name her "Brindly". She reminds us of Hoss....too bad he wasn't the daddy! :(



Puppy #2- cute boy. The "fuzziest and biggest one".






Puppy #3- another cute boy.













And puppy #4- a sweet girl.
Looking toward Hesperia Lakes and Silverwood! This river is usually bone dry!








We got hit with another storm that brought tons of rain! This is Rock Springs Rd.....it was shut down for like a year while they "rebuilt and improved the road" to fix the "wash-out problems! Hummmm..... do you think it would have been wise to raise the road to what might be known as a "bridge"? Duhh... So how's it workin' for ya?














It was so cool! Can you say "wash-out" ! :)
