Another hike at Commons Ford Ranch Metropolitan Park.








Another hike at Commons Ford Ranch Metropolitan Park.








I picked up hubby at the Ford dealership after he dropped off his vehicle for service. This is what we saw at the front of the lot.




When I went out to photograph the sunrise, I heard some ducks on the pond. The black-bellied whistling tree ducks objected to my presence and took flight.




The mallards, however, decided I was harmless and stayed around.

Puppy Ruckus joined our family in December. These are only some of the toys available for him to play with. The toy cache has grown over the years, with each new puppy. Some toys get retired when they are too torn up to use.

This, however, is puppy’s favorite toy.


He is never unsupervised so when he breaks off a piece, we take it away.
