Staying Put

Exactly what Ill be doing for awhile. Candy's arthritis has been getting worse. Decided it was time to take some action, so for 8 weeks she will be receiving Adequan injections into her legs to hopefully ease the pain. through her golden years. In the past shes had a tree fall on her, 3 leg surgeries, been confronted by a Bobcat, and been bitten by Rattler, so a mere 8 injections will be a piece of cake.

Happy Labor Day! Labor Day weekend has always marked the end of summer, and this year for me as well. My summer exploring the mountains will come to an end. I will be staying on "The Mesa" (the name which I've giving to my property/homebase) until my descent into the valley this fall.


Candy 3 days after her Rattlesnake 2009 Craggy wash Lake Havasu City.

 Fellow Nomad, and friend visits the Mesa in his converted Snap on tool truck. Definitely a comfy apartment on wheels. Right down to the back patio. 
Of course these guys are still running amuck/amok on the Mesa. That should do it for now Ill report any excitement that happens out here, but to tell the truth there isn't much of that out here, which is a good thing. Thanks for visiting. Good Day!

  1. Gee, hear I was thinking that Candy has had such a cushy life. Didn't realize she has been through so much. Tell her I said "Get Well Soon".

  3. Oh Candy, sorry to hear her legs are bothering her so bad. Sure hope the shots work before winter sets in. I have no idea if I am going to make it back up there. Still no camper shell. I am very ready to go.
    If I don't see you up on the mountain maybe when you get back to the valley going to check out Madera tomorrow to see what damage all this rain may have done to the road leading to the camp ground.

  5. Poor Candy - she is so sweet looking. I hope the injections will help her. If I had a "Mesa," I'd be spending a lot of time there. Looks beautiful. Sometimes it's nice to just stay put and take it easy for a while. :)
