I refrained from getting a dog but now, after an exhausting year of training, I feel so blessed. His love, willingness to please and companionship are deeply appreciated and valued. My RV lifestyle has given Arlo a varied life, and thanks to my motor-home, he can (generally) travel with me, so no matter what the weather conditions are he's by my side. When I’m out on a photo-shoot, he knows that the camera means he has to sit still, and stay, even when I walk away from him (he’s so good). That said however, given the opportunity, I’m sure he’d chase a squirrel, want to play with a coyote, or think a rattle snake was a toy…. yikes! So, sometimes he's left behind because I find it difficult to mind him, and be creative at the same time. Although Arlo adds to my worries and responsibilities, he fills my heart ....every day. Having said that, being loved, appreciated, adored and valued are everyone's core needs. Romi :-)
Our mornings at the Art Expo (in Scottsdale, Arizona), often start with a bike ride through the desert; it’s such an awesome and privileged way to start a winter day. The sandy trail is narrow, undulating and curves around a myriad of saguaro trees and desert plants; it's an entertainingly delightful ride! While cycling, I’ve noticed many great compositions, and have pledged to return with my camera, but only when the lighting was right. On this particular day, as the sun rose and the blue sky was awakening, the dark grey clouds were highlighted in yellow, the contrast was striking. I remembered a grouping of chollas that were not far from our RV so I gathered up my camera gear and hightailed it to that very spot; my timing was perfect!
