Cute animal pictures

I went on a hike with Diana.  Rin was quite photogenic that day.

 I swear, he thinks he's people

 and here's a cute pic of Gus and Mirabel, showing how stinking tiny she is.

Aww come on!

My garden in July

I missed ht super pretty time, but here are some pictures of my garden this year.  

 Im ignoring it terribly, but it still manages to be beautiful.  and the hammock on these hot evenings is just wonderful

New addition

For the 4th of July, we were up at Eric's house having a barbecue with the neighbors.  Serin and I were picking berries when I heard a pitiful little meow.  Then, in the brush pile (one of many actually, but that's another story) I found this tiny little scrap of skinny kittenness.  

It seems we have a new cat.  Met Mirabel

She was so very skinny, only weighing 4 lbs.  But she is a little love and seems to have joined our household with relatively little fuss.  Des hates her, but the feeling is mutual and avoidance seems to be the strategy.  She and Gus are warming up to each other, and we are hopeful that Gus may get the cuddle buddy he so wants.  

Moses Lake Trip

Last weekend we went to Moses Lake to hang out with Eric's grandmother.  Then, we went camping.  I only remembered the camera once we were camping, sorry.

Here's Soda Lake, where we camped and got eaten alive by mosquitos

 There were thunderstorms looming, the desert is spectacular when it's about to rain

 The whole area there is full of little pothole lakes and ponds.  Amazing to crest a hill and see all the green after the sage and tan

 I love the drama of this picture

 and a rainbow

 The next day we went hiking at Dry Falls.  It's a horseshoe canyon created when the glacial dam broke .  So spectacular canyon, and no river

 Eric and I.  Like my goofy hat?

 A fun lily
