The mountain that blew its top!

Yesterday was so much fun! We rode motorcycles again. There were lots of big trucks, and it was a little cold. I'm lucky for my cozy little spot on Mommy's bike. 

After a long ride, I made friends with a bear. He let me sit on his head! I think we should be in a circus. 


Then, daddy let me share his pizza. Yummy!


I must have been a very good monkey, because daddy shared his cookie too!


Later I scampered through a field, and stopped to smell the flowers. It felt good to run and run.


Then we got back on the bikes and headed to Crater Lake! It was a long ride, and we didn't see many humans or cars. We were in the wilderness, and it was peaceful.


After getting to Crater Lake National Park, we found our sleeping place.  This was our cozy cabin for the evening.


Then we explored! Mommy and Daddy let me play in the snow again! The snow was taller than Daddy!


Over the snow, you can see Crater Lake!


Silly Daddy photo bombed this one!


It was really amazing how the water was like a mirror.


Selfie!

We went to dinner at the lodge. It was beautiful. Mommy even let me try Elk. Yummy! It was covered in blackberries, my favorite.


I met these two nice ladies who wanted to know all about me and read my blog! I asked if I could get a picture with them.


I took some time thinking in this little corner. I've been thinking about what I want to be when I grow up. I thought about being a circus monkey, but as much as I like bears, I'm scared of lions. I  thought about being a zoo monkey, but I really like to travel.


I guess I'll need more time to reflect on that.


When I woke up this morning, I knew. I want to be famous!!!  I love traveling and meeting people. Maybe those nice ladies I met last night will make me famous! I'm going to go ask mommy how to be famous, and then I'm going to make mail. Mommy promised she'd help me with that today.

Bye!

Yosemite!

Yesterday we went on a huge adventure! We started riding, and there were so many bugs, we had to stop and clean visors and my window. I didn't want bug guts clouding my view! It was morning, but already hot in the desert.

When we stopped to clean, daddy went off roading! Whee! It looked fun!


Mommy took pictures, of course.


Then we continued on to Yosemite... I hadn't even had time for a nap before we were in snow!


Brrr, was that cold on my bottom!

Then we were there!


Even the sign was big!

We found these ginormous rocks. I saw climbers, so I gave it a try.


I didn't get very close to the top!


We saw a lizard that I wanted to eat, but mommy said I can't eat animals in Yosemite. Bah. 

There were so many pretty things!



I could sit for hours and just look at the views.


In this one, daddy told me to hold on tight! It was windy up there and a long way down!


I found a rock I could climb!


I fell off, but I told mommy not to post that picture.

Then we had lunch! I was a thirsty monkey.


We saw Mommy's favorite mountain! I don't know how you can have a favorite mountain, but it was pretty cool.


Mommy said it is called Half Dome. I wondered where the other half went!

We left Yosemite, and I took a nap. When I woke up, we were going around some crazy corners!


We stopped in Jamestown, and Mommy said they used to pan for gold here. I asked if we could pan for gold, but it looked like everything was pretty closed for the night. It was a sleepy little town.



When we got to Mommy's cousins, I got to meet a tin man!!


Then I found a perfect climbing tree. 


Then, I acted out a Winnie the Pooh story... Do you remember this one, where Pooh ate too much honey? Yum... Honey...  


When mommy told her cousin that she'd brought a monkey, Mommy's cousin was surprised! I liked Rosie and April.



April let us sleep in her bed, and she likes having 300 blankets. I think April is awesome. 

Bye!
















The giants and the ranchers!

Bouncy bouncy bouncy bounce! I want to play and do things!

We rode a long way for a Monkey yesterday!  We saw lots and lots of farms, with sheep and cows and horses. I talked to the sheep the most. The babies are so cute and only know a few words! They like their hillsides.

Mommy talked to me all about mail. I want to make some mail so I can go to the post office again! People in the post office are very nice.



We had tacos and nachoes for lunch! 


Then we had cinnamon crisps that were heavenly!

Daddy found a town all about him!


He's so cool. :-)

We saw the strangest thing yesterday. There were naked giants, right out there in the middle of nowhere! And my parents are so strange, they took pictures! You'd think that would be illegal or something. I hope they don't go to jail. I don't like jail.


We went to a cowboy resturaunt for dinner!


I met this nice cowboy. He said he had been standing there a real long time.

Then I tried to wear a horse shoe!


My feet were too small, so I wore it on my neck. 


Mommy ordered beer! Ever since grandma and grandpas, I like to taste beer. Mommy says only a little taste for a little monkey.


This is Daddy's bar-b-choke face.


He makes better faces than I do.

I think I should call all my friends now. Spiky Cash, are you home?


Later today I get to see a mountain that blew a lake into itself!

Bye!
