Black tailed jackrabbit!

We went out to cottonwood springs tonight for some camping and deep-
sky observing with our 18" UC obsession telescope. Unfortunately all
the campground spots were full, so we set up in the parking lot. Then
it started clouding up after midnight, so we decided to pack up and
leave. Here I am at the ranger station at the cottonwood entrance by a
neat sign with all the desert animals, including the black tailed
jackrabbit! I like camping, observing, and jackrabbits!

Crazy bird Part 2 - they're back!

Here I am today - there are two crazy birds that keep flying into and hitting the the window. One of them even ventured inside and jumped up on the couch! You can see him on the pillow in the background!

Caterpiller!

Whoa! There is a creature on my face! Don't worry - it is just a
friendly caterpiller. And i will probably take a batg today. We went
to the Santa rosa plateau again today and they are everywhere! I like
caterpiller creatures.

new teacup

Hi everyone - went to starbucks today and got some new mugs for tea
and hot chocolate. There was a really cool cup that was my sized and
it had a cool tree on it, too. I like my new cup.
