Colorado River

From the South Rim there are not very many views of the Colorado River. This is one of the better views you get.

Mule trails down into the canyon.

We saw a couple people walking down into the canyon but no site of any mules. I don't think January is a busy time in the park.

The views never end

The temperatures were in the 30s with a light breeze. There was a couple of inches of snow and ice on the ground.

another view

awesome view

Our first day in Vegas we took a 300 mile drive (one way) to the Grand Canyon. The view was worth the drive.

Chase

This picture is from last week when we had nice white snow. With the warm temperatures the nice white snow has turned to hard dirty snow, not good for pictures. We did take a couple of walks this weekend in the woods behind the high school. The crusty snow lets the dogs walk easily on top of the snow.

Molly's new jacket

Lynn made some wonderful jackets for the dogs.

Another day in the backyard

Max and Molly are enjoying our January thaw. Well not much thawing at 30 degrees but 30 is much better than 5.

Wood Pile

Look a picture without a dog.

More chasing pictures

Not very often Max is in the lead.

Max being cute

Took another walk to the river this afternoon. Molly wouldn't sit still but Max likes to have his picture taken.

Molly teasing max

Molly is quicker than Max and is always first to get the toy during fetch.

Treat time

Max and Molly love playing in the snow so much we have been having a hard time getting them to come in. I have had to offer then treats to lure them to the gate. This picture is them waiting for their treat.

Squirrel teasing Max

Squirrels love to sit on the fence and taunt Max. you can see the squirrel in the upper left corner of the photo.

Max loves to hunt squirrels.

Max is up on the high point of the back yard scouting the area for squirrels.

Molly playing fetch.

Molly loves to play fetch.

Molly's snack shrub

Now that the snow has covered up the grass Molly loves to snack on this bush. We try to keep her from eating the shrub as much as possible.

Max at the river

We had a nice walk down to the river yesterday.

Tag in the snow.
