Holiday on the Ranch



Our hostess, Marilyn, is actually a bunny angel in disguise... she lives in her dream house on acres where she takes care of her "critters", most of them rescued. And she rescued us on Easter Sunday. Put out quite the spread, too, everything from bloody marys to jelly beans. Thanks, Marilyn!



Chicken with a DO
(or: do the funky chicken)
These birds are as handsome as any we have seen at the county fair - there are ducks and geese, too, all living in harmony...



The baby BULL... Marilyn may be a woman of extremes.... she has a tiny dachsund named Honey and then she has really big bulls. We forget the baby's name, but will find out and correct the omission.

She has horses and dogs and cats, too... her place is better than any "petting zoo" we have ever been to - and so full of love - just an amazing woman, an amazing place.

Easter SaNOOO



We woke up to a bit of a surprise this morning. SNOW!!! The dogs ran out the door as usual and then skidded to a halt when they saw this:

How funny! We laughed for at least 20 minutes watching Gigabyte, the California dog trying to figure out what THIS was. Sweetie the chow dog was OK with it as long as she could stay on the porch...

Still in Ash Fork...



There are hearts all over the land around the cabin...
they start out as clumps of green grass. When the
grass dries out, a heart shape remains - like a big
hug from Mother Earth.
