Let's Go!

 Hello Blog World.
Little Fox here.  Enjoying a nice chef's salad before my upcoming plane trip.  It's always good to be a healthy eater (yes, I know bacon is on the salad.....but one has to have a few vices).


The roommates were kind enough to share some of their chips.  The flavor of these chips is Voodoo Fire.  Yummy. 
Now that dinner has been consumed....time to wait. 
There is a tradition out of my home airport to take a picture of your feet against the iconic 80s carpet. 
This USA Today article sums it up nicely. 
Waiting....still waiting.  I wonder if they let foxes have priority boarding status on Alaska Air?

Mail Call

 Greetings Blog World.
Little Fox is on vacation so us other stuffies and Sequoia have decided to take over the blog for the week.

Let me introduce todays hosts:  Reindeer Coyote, Aardvark who wishes to be the Easter Bunny and Choya the Kanagroo Rat who we met in Joshua Tree a year or two ago.   Sequoia is in the far right too, he's too busy rolling around on the lawn but wanted to say hi.

First up is a card from Jerry and Ben.  It's from the Minneapolis Institute of Art.  A very classy card indeed.  

J and B enjoyed the art and the snacks in the cafe afterward (I hope they each got an ice cream and a nice entree for lunch).  Thanks J and B for the card.

Up next is a card from Sandy.  Another beary classy card and for the record I think Sandy is running out of stickers as there were only 5 on the envelop (not including the stamp and return address label). 

This post is way overdue, the card from Sandy is from June 5. Like us, they too had a wet spring and it seems that Sandy is off to visit Jerry and Ben while Cocoa is off on a trip across the pond to see Beanie and company.  Sandy asked about the Sunflower seeds I planted to show my support for Ukrainian and sadly the seeds never did much so I will need to find another way to support Ukraine.

Meet our next guest hosts.  Clawdette, Bernice, and Bertran.  Guess who is who (hint: Bernice is the mouse in the cats basket).  These animals are REALLY into biking, they spend a ton of time chasing each other on their bikes. 



 They wanted to share a card from Droopy.  Droopy is traveling the world with his buddy Ajdin and they are enjoying Savanah.  He mentioned that Savanah was a major shipping port, I had no idea that they shipped anything out of Savanah. I need to out that location on travel to do list.


Droopy was curious if any of the ships had any bacon on them, I did a little research and I don't think they do but I did find an artisan Bacon Store in Georgia. If you go Droopy be sure to see if they send samples to the West Coast.

Thanks everyone for the mail.  Have a great day.
Clawdette, Bernice, Bertran, Sequoia,  Reindeer Coyote, Aardvark who wishes to be the Easter Bunny and Choya the Kanagroo Rat.

Another adventure or two...

As John Muir said "The mountains are calling and I must go."  Today, I'm back on a hiking adventure around Smith Rocks. Let's go! 

The landscape at Smith Rocks is so much different than my home hiking turf. 
Always good to follow the cairns when hiking, just so you don't get lost. 
Back down in the canyon walls.
Ah, what a hike.  This fox (and dog) are tired. 
When's lunch?

A quick hiking adventure

 Hiya Gang,

Little Fox here.  I'm enjoying some nice time off for Memorial Day (yep, this is a tad outdated).  Oh well, I'm hoping to get some hiking taken care of. 

I love the central part of my state.  The wide open spaces, the different trees and the sun!
Speaking of sun, I need to get this hike done quickly as I am chasing sunlight.  The forecast is sunny in the morning but raining after 1pm.  
The wildflowers are small in the high desert but still pretty. 
On a clearer day one can see the mountains.  Not quite today.  
Still dry (yipee).  


My hike was great and it was a  new one for me.  Plus, an after hike drink (or two).  The humans are hinting for a sip or two but I just don't know if I have enough beer to share.

Happy Father's Day

 Hiya Gang,
Little and Drunk Fox here.  We wanted to wish you a happy Father's Day.  



Hopefully there is some BBQ'd chicken in our future today.

Mail from Minnesota

 Yaah, Little Fox and Little Bear here (the best Minnesota accent we could do).

I got this cool card of Babe and the Blue Ox from Jerry and Ben.   My deduction skills tell me that they were up North  in Bemidji....perhaps visiting Babe and Paul.





Thanks for the awesome card you two (hope gardening season is starting up) I need to run into the kitchen and check my recipe book for a hot dish recipe using tater tots and cream of mushroom soup.  Yum, dinner is served.

A little adventure

 Hiya Gang,

Little Fox here.  Today, I'm off on a nice springtime hike at an Old Cherry Orchard.


Spring is nearing it's end but I'm hoping to find some nice wildflowers.  Nothing quite yet, the trail has been redone recently and is in great condition. Paws crossed.

The last of the lupine.  
Sequoia found some good flowers as well.   Yeah Sequoia.
The wildflower season is slowly winding down but don't fret this fox has lots more exploring to do.
