Thistle Thursday

We don't really know what this is. We find one every year at about this time.  But only one. Mom thinks they are really amazing. We think she's weird and should be taking pictures of US on our walks, not the stupid flowers. She's a KB wannabe. Dream on Mom...













Does anyone know what this is called?  She'll sleep better at night if she knows. That and maybe if we leave some room for Dad and her on OUR bed.  Just sayin'....



Rottie kisses,

The Volunteer

The place where we walk is pretty much a floodplain.  Our stream flows down the canyon from those hills back there.  When it rains heavily like it has this year our creek becomes more like a river and rises pretty high, washing out landscaping on it's way down to the valley below.  





You can see how rocky and barren it can be...

And then we found these!!



Just growing up out of the sand, bright and beautiful; just celebrating that Spring is here in our wash...






Happy Spring, Everybody!!



We also wanted to thank our Black and Brown furiends at Terrors on Four Paws for recognizing us with the Kreativ Blogger Award!  Thanks so much Jack, Kaiser and Farrusquinho!!



We'd like to pass it along to:
Asta
RA HUSKY
Roo
Anna the GSD and
Romping and Rolling in the Rockies
all of whom are extremely 'Kreativ' in their own way!


Bye for now,
Gizmo, Bart and Ruby
