Dawn
Our walk at dawn, a sniff and pee for Jake, took much longer than normal this morning because of colors, critters, and a different route home that introduced Jake to an overwhelming variety of new smells and tumbleweeds to pee on.

When Jake and I went out for a walk at dawn, the first critters we encountered when we walked out onto the ditch bank were a couple of coyotes.

Clouds splashing over the sandias eventually brought rain. We have 2/10 of an inch so far.

Coyote using the Coyoteverse to shapeshift into a CoYoda.
This time of year, during the alignment of Sirius and the sun, coyote portals open up for them to move round and shapeshift through the Coyoteverse.

Spunk: “Hey Paparazzo! Don’t forget about Spunks Gate and the Spunkyverse. Since today was a no sun Sunday in the Spunkyverse, it was Sirius.” Il Paparazzo: “It was rough, especially when you were having a screaming match with your doppelgänger!”

Laurie with the Bullsnake. ¡Olé!
A large bullsnake was lying in the road. A large pickup truck rolled over it, but luckily it avoided running over the snake with the truck’s tires. I got out of our car, scooped up the bullsnake, and handed it to Laurie. The snake was squirking around, so she rolled down her wind and let it hang its head out the window like a dog. It calmed down a bit as we drove home. After photographing each other with the snake, I let it go in Rebecca’s Black Bamboo.
It seemed most appropriate that I was wearing an Alice Cooper T-shirt while holding the Bullsnake.
Jake and I saw a coyote on our walk at dusk.

We met the three coyotes on the levee again this morning.
Loki: “Psst! Marble! You really don’t want to eat that cheese. Il paparazzo had his filthy paws on it, you know!”

We had hard rain on and off this afternoon.
When Jake and I went on our early morning walk, we encountered a pack of three coyotes. We were walking on the lower bank, and the coyotes ran up on top of the levee and watched as we walked by.
As you may know, Jake loves to lift his leg on tumbleweeds. Currently, the tumbleweeds are green and soft; however, Jake discovered cockleburs on the lower bank. While the cockleburs are also still green, they are nice and scratchy.

A short reprieve from the rain.
The clouds were gathering again when I left for the store to get cheese for the cats. It started raining hard again. I sat in the car and did Duolingo until the rain let up enough to where I wouldn’t get soaked walking into the store.
My rain gauge recorded 4/10 of an inch of rain this afternoon, bringing us up to nearly an inch of rain for the month of June.
