"Ummm, you gonna share that stick or what?"
"What are you doing there little guy?"
"I'm not that kind of girl! Back off buddy!"
Here's the perpetrator: Hank ;) Don't let his cute looks fool you! BOL!
Went for a hike yesterady in the hills with my friend, Sierra, and there was a little snow left in places. :)
Mom likes the washed out look sometimes plus this picture was very dark so this was the best she could do before she got tired of tweaking it. :) The valley down below is where I live.
Do you see the Bald Eagle? We saw three or four of them yesterday! I know you can't tell what it is from the picture but take my word for it, it is a Bald Eagle.
Crossed a very small creek/field that had been flooded and there were lots of ice chunks.WARNING:
These next few images may be disturbing but they were a part of my weekend so I felt the need to include them.
What you are seeing is really a deer leg and Sierra would not let that thing out of her sight. You see, there are alot of hunters in these parts and apparently they like to go to the same place we went hiking. Now that most of the snow is melted there were lots of treasures to be found. Sierra found all of the good stuff though and anytime I would get close for a sniff/nibble she would let me know that I needed to back off. She is very protective of her yummies. :)
Know what this is? You guessed it, the best and biggest and juiciest chocolate chips EVER! Also known as elk droppings, they are quite tasty! I was able to keep my energy up for the hike by popping a few of these bad boys in my mouth every now and then, Unfortunately, I didn't get as many as I wanted because Mom kept shooing me away! How Rude!
And here are the big herd of elk that so graciously left the treats behind for me! Thanks my elk friends! I owe ya one. BOL! They are hard to see as they ran away from us but if you click on the picture you can see them better. There were at least 40 of them all together.
Last, a picture of me and Mom when we were almost finished with our muddy hike. :) Hope all of you had BARKariffic weekends!

WOW that looks like it was an AWESOME weekend!!! Thanks for sharing the fun pics. You are a great dog Nala. Looks like you give your mom a great life.
Thank you for your kind words and support on my loss of my buddy O'Reilly. I know if you had met him you would have absolutely LOVED him and you would have played like crazy.
Well, that looks like a fun weekend! I wish I could get my parents to give me a fun weekend.

I loved the photos. What a hike!
Hi Nala
What a great place to hike. I loved seeing the elk. I'm sure I would like to sample the elk droppings but mom is saying ewww!!
It looks like you had a great New Year at the beach. Are you sure you don't have some dachshund in you the way you like to snuggle under covers and stay away from the cold?
I was sorry to hear about your friend O'Reilly. He sounded like quite the character.
See you soon.
Love Ruby
We have something on our blog for you! Come and check it out!

Hey Nala, we have an award for you too!
Hey Nala & Amber! Looks like you guys had a fabulous weekend!!! Mr. Jay likes yummy chocolate chips too... hmmm, the young troublemaker! ;)
Wow - I LOVE your pictures, Nala!! Such beautiful places to walk - I wish I could join you! I would love to see all that wildlife (and would definitely like some of that "chocolate chip"!! Hee! Hee!)
I was really laughing at your comment on that photo of Hank "getting friendly" with you - a lot of boy dogs do that to me too! And when we've only just met!!
Sorry I haven't been able to visit much late - but my humans are coming home soon (I'm so excited!) so I will be able to come by regularly again!

We love your photos.....in particular where you and your mum are togheter!!!!You two are a very very very beautiful girls!!!!

I think if you research the droppings you say are elk you will find that they are Moose.
I'm pretty positive they are actually elk...I have never seen a moose around here and there are herds of elk that I see in this vicinity all the time. Maybe the picture just makes them look big??? What is your reasoning? :)
