May has been a busy month of hiking, designing and writing. My beloved husband Rick also began hiking after a year marked by several health set backs. I am so proud of him and the courage he has shown in beginning a regular exercise routine, especially as we are heading into the humid months of summer. You are a true survivor my wonderful husband!
Often I have extra photographs from our joint excursions into the Mountains and little time to write a complete blog each time. I have decided to create a monthly blog featuring photographs from our joint hikes. There have been wonderful sightings of lovely Squirrels, a shy Turtle, tiny Chipmunk, curious male Cardinal, a flock of Canada Geese and a bold Coopers Hawk. We are blessed to have close (across the street) access to the beautiful spring trails of vibrant green decorated with spectacular Wildflowers and Fungi within Hot Springs National Park.
Much Love to Everyone!

I can see the dramatic changes looking back at just a few days ago (of your blogs); the forest is truly coming to life and it is gorgeous. I love the flora and can hike in it for hours like u but when it includes wildlife I get even more fascinated. Thank you for capturing them on film. Great photography. Love ur DH Rick x0x0x
