Blooming Desert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This at Cottonwood Cove at the Ranger Station. It's about 15 feet tall. A cactus along the side of the road near Searchlight, Nevada. They are everywhere and hard to miss.....So vibrant!
Lots of reds too.
This guy here is a Zebra Tailed lizard....See his black and white stripped tail? This one is about a foot long.

Lovell Canyon

We took a ride out in this canyon looking for critters and wildflowers. This is what we found. A tarantula nest! Actually there were lots of these nests. The Mom is in there with her babies. It was kind of creepy to say the least. You can see things moving inside! This pic gives you an idea of how big the nests are.
A shot of a Joshua Tree blooming
Close to the middle of this pic (the white cactus) is called Jumping cactus because if you get to close it attacks you! Jumps right at you!!!!!!!!!!

KT's one year anniversary

Well it has been a year today that KT left us and left a big hole in our hearts. He was more like a kid instead of a cat. I mean we even played hide and seek with him! But he did like to hunt. In his last year he caught 15 ground squirrels and who knows what else. And he beat up his share of other cats. But he was the most loving cat I have ever seen. We miss you Baby Cakes. KT's favorite nap spot!
That's typical KT
We received thi letter in the mail about 6 weeks after KT passed. Our wonderful vet Dr. Sally donated in KT's name to a great charity to help other kitties in need. KT touched alot of poeple and still is I'm sure.................................
