Just a Note...

Just a short note to say hi and share this beautiful picture of Slide Mountain with just bit of snow left from this amazing Winter.

The Spring has brought lots of water to Washoe Valley and some surprises too. We got to see two baby Owls grow up and out grow thier nest before leaving from a neighborhood tree. Have not seen them for a couple weeks now, so it seems they have found safer and more comfortable digs.

We also have a unwanted visitor to our little patch of land. A coyote has been eating the rabbits that make our grass thier home. To protect our kids, the Chihuahuas, we have borrowed a paint ball gun from a friend and are laying in wait for his or her next visit. We would not want to kill this visitor, we are just looking to make his visits very uncomfortable and this seems the best option. Stay tuned and we will let you know how this turns out.

Until next time, take care and enjoy this shot from our front yard.
