Jake turns into a Werejake on Halloween

Holy Jakamole! That’s impressive! And the rest of you cats think I’m silly to be wary of Jake! I rest my kitty case.

Spunk hugging boxes I broke down trying to keep me from taking them out.

Pssst! Hey you! Yeah, you, Paparazzo! Have any wire cutters you could spare?

Coyote Dawn

Resa’s Wolf Tree and Venus at dawn.

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.

Harvest Supermoon on its way to setting.

Sandias and geese in the mist again.

Balloons on the rise

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

We got a rainbow at sunset

Sandias were still socked in

The clouds split for a moment at sunset

Who Can You Believe?

Gwendolyn’s favorite pose of late

“I didn’t do it, Spunk! No! Really! I swear! I did not sneak and eat your food!”

“Yeah! Right, Jako Dawg! You can fool that pesky, pathetic paparazzo with your puppy dog eyes, but you can’t fool me!”

“You believe me, don’t you, paparazzo?”

Ducks In The Mist

Dawn

Wet dog at dawn

Jake and I went out at daybreak to open the irrigation gate. While I was cleaning out the ditches as the water flowed in, Jake got all wet romping around in the cool early morning wetness. There was enough rain up north over the past week to raise the water level in the river enough to irrigate.

Sunflower: “Jake! You are such a silly dog!’

Ducks in the mist

After I got all the leaves out of the ditches, Jake and I went on a walk to the river and saw ducks in the mist.

More ducks in the mist

Mist sans ducks

Rio Grande and Sandias at dawn

Glenda

Jake was worn out after romping around, getting all wet, and watering all the tumbleweeds on the way to and from the river.
