Back East…

Posted on April 3, 2012 by Maureen Farr

As somebody famous once said, “What a long, strange trip it’s been!” and we aren’t even close to home yet.  Closer than we were last Tuesday (still in Silver City at that time), but we still have a lot of … Continue reading →

Posted on April 1, 2012 by Maureen Farr

We left New Mexico last Wednesday, and here we are in Jackson, Tennessee on Sunday.  After all that vast, brown, crunchy beauty of the Southwest, I have to say that the green grass, fully leafed trees, and overabundance of water … Continue reading →

worth 1,000 words?

Posted on February 19, 2012 by Maureen Farr

We have no news to report from Silver City, except that Max is healing really well.  He’s up to his old tricks – bringing me the errant sock, my slippers or shoes (one by one), and the occasional toy as … Continue reading →

Much to my surprise, we woke this morning to about 2″ of snow on the ground!  There’s a rain barrel outside my kitchen window and the water on the top of it was frozen…   I knew Max would like to … Continue reading →

Sunday at the dog park… and more

Posted on February 12, 2012 by Maureen Farr

Sunday afternoon, Silver City.  After yesterday’s gorgeous 64° welcome, it was a bit of a shock to wake up to low 30s and tiny hail this morning. For most of the day the sun comes out, the sun goes in, … Continue reading →

Posted on February 11, 2012 by Maureen Farr

We made it safely to Silver City this afternoon, and are settled in.  We’re staying in the same little adobe we had last year for two weeks, and it truly felt like we had come home! It was wonderful to … Continue reading →
