Just a few pics when I was feeding cracked corn to some ducks (and a few geese!) while visiting family in Huntsville, AL. Amazing creatures, that they are. Such vibrant and beautiful colors. Even saw some turtles sunning on some rocks. Couldn’t get close but I think some were Red Eared Sliders.

So… last month, I went to a Japanese garden at Monte Sano state park, while I was visiting family in Huntsville, AL. That was really really cool. Very serene and calming. Would definitely go back if I ever had the opportunity to.

I can’t wait until it gets a little bit cooler outside… I want to do some desert camping so so so bad right about now. We did go a little NW of Flagstaff back in July. That was so much fun camping up in the mountains deep in the woods. The ponderosa pines there are soooo awesome!

Our forecast for the week… and it’s only the beginning of June.

Found one of the most amazing things ever… Nesquik chocolate syrup! Used to love the powder but it’s kinda messy when I get my hands on it. Powder like everywhere!! lol. I like the Hershey’s chocolate syrup too… but the Neaquik just tastes better to me. I save the Hershey’s syrup for ice cream. Heh

Not sure which is more amusing… OfTaco or OfPutin! Haha.

Posting a few pics from our hike today, umm yesterday I suppose, as it’s now after 3 in the morning. We went to Sears Kay Ruins, about a half hour drive from the casa. The trail is maybe a 2 mile loop around some ruins built by the Hohokam around 1050 AD.

Sad but true. Some of us tried. :(

Welp, it’s two in the morning and I’m still awake. Barely slept any last night (maybe 2-1/2 hrs?) and was up all bloody day too. Gonna try some chamomile tea. If that fails, I have my baclofen, some Wyld thc gummies, and my good old Copperstate thc vape pen. I will sleep! lol

Chillin’ at South Mountain… love the hiking trails here.

Gah… the shit going on these days makes me both soooo angry & sad at the same time. We were so close to getting it right, to be a shining example of peace & prosperity, and failed horribly. Along with many others, I tried. Did my part. Still think Queenalonia (musk) stole it somehow.

lol... damned scammers can go blow a goat. They txted their very obvious spam/scam to my watch cell number, not my phone. Makes me angry, sometimes people fall do for it. Ironically, I was just reading a news article about this particular scam days ago. 😡(I removed their link and name from the pics)

I am sooooooo looking forward to this! To see both Bernie and AOC speak… yes plz! Really needed something like this to take me out of the depression for a little while. Hopefully they’ll let us take pictures. 💙💙💙

I tried to get a pic of last nights blood moon… failed horribly. Freaking iPhone always trying to autocorrect shit even with the camera. ><

It’s a damned shame that the pics I take of sunsets never look close to how it looks IRL. The colors just don’t seem to save properly. To my eyeballs, the clouds appeared to have way much more red on them… :/

I could go for a nice hamburg steak right about now. Heh. Gotta love the anime series “Frieren.” Bring on season 2! (estimated Jan 2026)
March 11, 2025 at 9:09 AM
Oh wow… we’re finally going to get some rain tomorrow! Happens so rarely here that it’s like an event! Heh

That aside, here’s a few pics from our hike near the Phon D Sutton Recreation Area, off of the Bush HWY. No wild horse sightings this time tho.

Headed back to the McDowell mountains this weekend… or maybe the Apache Trail in the Superstitions. Such a beautiful area to drive & hike.

While a lot of people were getting ready to watch 'THE GAME'... I was out hiking. I'll enjoy an ASU Sun Devil game, or a 'Bama game, but I never really did follow pro football much at all. To each their own tho. I am also a VGK fan. heh. Go Knights!!

But yeah... had a good day nevertheless. 💙🤘🌵

Beauty in the desert… at Blue Wash Trail, north east of Cave Creek. From our hike earlier. Loved the three mile canyon hike & waterfall!

Just marking my progress for my own personal benefit.
