We have a cat that has chosen to live with us and 4 dogs. She has been with us for nearly 2 years now and as far as she is concerned she is a dog!!! Today I caught her asleep on top of the kennel in my plant pot!
We had a great day in the snow yesterday with Khumbu and Bruno up in the Sierra Nevada. It was a blue sunny sky at 18C deg, perfect. Khumbu did very well with his skijoring in helping Richard up hill on his skis and Bruno just wanted to save all skiers! [MEDIA=15]

A Happy New Year to everyone who reads this blog of mine and I hope you like the new look of it. Christmas was a quiet affair here at our cortijo in Lanjaron, but we did manage to cook ourselves a proper Christmas dinner which was great. The dogs had the chicken that Richard didn’t [...]
So you would have thought after a cold day up Veleta we would have had a day off . . . but no we went up another mountain, a smaller one admittedly due to bad weather on the high mountains of the Sierra Nevada. We headed off to Trevenque (2079m) and arrived in time to [...]
