I went out early on April 1, the weather was so gorgeous, I wanted to break out into Oh, what a beautiful morning! Since I can't sing, that would have scared some critters away, for sure.
I followed this fence.
As I walked uphill, my walk turned into the beginning of a hike and I felt really good. A bit less good as I noticed all this barbed wire wrapped around the remnant of a cut down juniper tree. I wondered who would come up here and cut down a juniper? And wrap it in some left over fencing, or old fencing being taken down.
But still, junipers won't give up so easily. See the little tree at the end? There's just one long limb left of the original tree and it's on the ground, but this part of the tree survives. And in an exceptional drought, no less.
Another view.

And one more. My pictures would be better, I imagine, if I used my camera, but the phone is so light and easy to use. And I need it with me for security anyway.
Faith in the shade. Her vet came to visit us the other evening to give her the rattlesnake and kennel cough vaccines. She was happy visiting, but she's no dummy. As soon as he took out the needle and the rest, Faith jumped up in my lap as I sat on the couch.
When I told her she should be a good girl because this nice doctor has come all this way to see you. The vet said, "and you," meaning me. He came after work to to make my life easier. It's a long drive. I'm so grateful for such kindness. I'm tearing up and all I can do, is say thank you and be amazed at the kindness of people.
