Man, that's a big dog!

SWMBO is always concerned about dogs riding in the backs of trucks without being leashed. She's concerned they'll jump or fall out. But they never seem to do that. This guy looked a lot bigger when he stood up with his front paws on the side rail. The next day I saw a truck going down the street with three German Shepherd's in the rear. Couldn't reach the camera for a shot, though.

Cautious pals


In a fairly rare occurrence, Jazz and Smoke are sharing my chair.

Snow Fun

Someone living near my pal, Reed, turns out to be quite a snow sculptor. I noticed these examples of his/her work when I was visiting this morning.

Super Bowl Matchup

Well, as expected the two dominant teams in the National Football League will meet up in the Super Bowl this year. The Indianapolis Colts will play the New Orleans Saints as both teams advanced through their respective league championship games today. So . . . who will win?

Who knows?

But it will be a great game, I expect.

Clouds and Snow

SWMBO and I saw the movie "It's Complicated" this afternoon. Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin are very funny in the featured roles. But John Krasinski nearly steals the movie with great acting as Harley. We were a bit surprised by the laughter from seniors in the audience to some scenes of marijuana smoking by Streep and Martin. It was a very enjoyable film.

Then we drove in to Prescott for a great meal at the Olive Garden. Enroute to and from the restaurant, SWMBO took some photos through the windshield. Those contrails in a couple of the photos are actually streaks made by my windshield wipers.

Snowy panorama toward Granite Mountain.

And the view toward Woodchute and Mingus Mountain.
