Re-entry

The vacation is over. Bummer. I'm back to work today, with nothing to show for my time away
 except a bunch of pictures and great memories.
 Please bear with me while I dump them here over the next few days.

The Ethels love my animals and vice versa. 



It was one big love fest...



...despite the wind and whacky New Mexico weather.
(It snowed here on Saturday. And rained. And sleeted. And hailed. And the sun came out, too.)



Smooch loves having houseguests, and she loves waking them up in the morning. 
Dog breath at sunrise is the first order of the day.
Let this be a warning to anyone planning to visit. 



Hiking at the neighborhood ruins is also a popular activity.




As is eating and drinking.

  3. I like how they all gather around for their share of the love. Do they act like they miss you after you've been away? My cat will sit with his back towards me for a couple of days.
