Knoll Lake 2011

Our annual Knoll lake vacation camping trip was so much fun. Just getting out of the desert heat for a few days can do wonders for the soul. There hasn't been much rainfall this year, just enough to raise the ban on camp fires.







We caught a few fish,





saw some beautiful sunsets,



went for walks--I can't find tiny dog clothes that fit Lolly Bee so hubby's sock kept the chill off during the morning stroll...






Camping dogs close to us. This is Rage.





And Chico.



Francis, Jimmy Tom and Midge.






LollyBee loving the campfire.



I spent a lot of time on this hammock.





Eddie has been the camp host at Knoll Lake for the past 8+ years. He always had a lot of great stories and a lot of information about the wildlife in the area. This is his last year this site. He will be missed!

Artichoke Flowers

Beautiful artichoke flowers! I have about 6 dried and on display. I just love these flowers, probably more than the artichokes!





Sun rays over my roof line. So beautiful.
