Wildlife in the city park on my daily walks with the doggies

Even the doggies had to stop and gaze at the deer who stopped to snack...

An amazing mountain sunset (thanks, Eric)

Budweiser Clydesdales...such beautiful animals!!

Time for Pretty Toes

Rache and I took Grandma to get her toes done. She really enjoyed having a cup of coffee, a chair massage, and her feet pampered.

Rache was brave enough to let little "Richard" select a color for her toes!

One happy Grandma :0)

The first night that we were back in Sheridan from Danny's wedding we headed down to the park for licorice ice cream! YUM!! There was a long line as well as many sad faces due to all of the sold out flavors!!

New in the park this summer are these really cool wood statues/carvings. Rache said that one of the junior high teachers is the master of them. The ice cream cone and fish were already completed when we had ice cream that night, but I got to watch his progress on the coyote as I walked the doggies each morning in the park. It was very interesting to see him in action!! The last of the four isn't finished yet, and it looks to be a crescent shaped moon with a face carved into it. It reminds me of the picture from the children's book, Goodnight Moon. Very cool and creative pieces of art!!
