Perfect Sunday Stroll

I took the dogs for a walk over at Starkey this morning, the weather could not be better today.  The mutts had such an exciting time they were more riled up for a while after the walk than before it – talk about a back fire. But they are mellowed out now, yay 5 minutes of peace!

For the first time in memory we were able to get over the little walking bridge, lately it’s always washed sideways.  That gave us two options, the road or the bridge. I chose neither since the dogs have to walk in tandem, but they headed over the bridge without a problem. Yes, the picture on the right is the road!

ChoicesThe mutts were happy because we passed about 10 other dogs and a couple of horses.  Not to mention the fact that we heard something big right off the path in the bushes (maybe a squirrel, maybe a mountain lion, who can say?).  If that wasn’t enough while we were walking on the narrow path back a bird ran right under their noses from one side of the path to the other flapping it’s wings and squawking like crazy.  I’m pretty certain the dogs thought it was the BEST walk ever.

I had fun too, if they care.  Florida can definitely have a zen like beauty!

Just another of the million things to see and do i Just another of the million things to see and do in central Arizona. There Is so much history here that you can still see. An 110 room, 1000 year old pueblo that you can walk around and even into one of the rooms. It's such a privilege and one more example of why it is so important that we keep these places as they are. 

 They even let you bring your leashed pups!

Did an overnight side quest to see Organ Pipe Cact Did an overnight side quest to see Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. It's not on the way to or from anywhere and I have been wanting to see it for ages but it's 3 hours from Benson AZ. 

So worth the trip! There are several cactus species that only grow in this area. I got pictures of organ pipe cactus and senita. 

 It's a green desert which sounds odd until you see it. I don't think i've ever seen so many kinds of desert plants in one place in my life. And I was raised camping in the desert most weekends.

Also- The campground is amazing. There are no amenities but it more than makes up for it in views.

I spent the day in Santa Fe. There are SO many sho I spent the day in Santa Fe. There are SO many shops, galleries, museums and pop ups just in the little area I visited! I think I could easily spend a month in the city and not see everything.
