The Irony of SoCal “Seasons” …

Summers here are mostly gray.  Autumns come and go with minimal fall foliage splendor.  Winters are rarely cold.  And oftentimes, Spring Green comes early.  Like this year.  Middle Dude and I headed into the canyon to soak it all up.  With cameras in hand, of course.

Middle Dude also tried out his coyote whispering skills, not to much avail. (He's determined to bring one home for a pet. oy. I don't think Dog Dude would approve.)

I would love to live one winter with a So. Cal weather instead of freezing temps & snow. :)

I loved these. What a gift to do this with him! Tell him my dad brought home a fox puppy once when he was a boy. Raised it until it began to bite and get aggressive...yeah...had to let it go. :(

So excellent! Sort of jealous here...cool cameras and green grass! My world has gone sepia...without the help of photoshop! These photos were a joy to see!

Oh my goodness. What a fun afternoon. I love your little camera aficionado.

The pictures are stunning.

I would love if you got a wolf : ) and honestly, if any family could handle one, I'm pretty sure it's yours!
