Moab and Murphy

After our last snowfall, the golf course looked like a busy ski area from a distance.    Lots of tracks and I was mystified until this gaggle showed up.    

This is Murphy.   He lives in Connecticut.    He is less than a year old.    He loves the snow but he shivers because he is not hairy.    So what is a grandmother to do ?    I made him this covering altho I think it might need to be bigger.... 

And then I saw this picture so promptly added a knit hat to his wardrobe.  

Apparently, the wearing did not go well..... 

But the curiosity remained. 

 

When he isn't modeling new clothes, he is the vigilant back seat driver.    

And then, we returned to Dead Horse Point SP for a few days respite from the noise.    Perfect weather for biking the paved paths near Moab.   We did about 25 miles of vigorous riding over 2 days.    Our pedal assist bikes are just fun but we still get a good workout.    We 're seeing more and more of the E-bikes.  

Along the Colorado....

Our last night, we drove out to the Point to soak up the sunset above the canyon walls.    We weren't alone .... a young crowd with music and laughter.       A beautiful end to our short stay.       And now we wait for more snow....
