Morenita has made herself quite at home since she was adopted… she’s taken over from Vale as top dog.

Here she’s demanding admittance trough the front door!

Lounging on the back deck…

The last two years I’ve been exploring my interest in astronomy. I’ve got a 10″ Dobsonian telescope and enjoy the dark skies of the ranch to stargaze. On lazy nights I just set it up on the balcony and look at the moon…

I’ve got a nice little opening in the forest that the balcony looks out through. The moon as it approaches full is really spectacular. A glass of red wine and an evening perched on the stool is very peaceful.

I set the telescope out here on the upper deck…

Here’s the window of sky the moon arcs through…

Here’s my telescope, a Zhumell Dobsonian…

et le misma luna para nuestros…
