New Year

Well, apparently the puppies have decided that bien indeed a new year is for turning a new leaf. I went on a very small trip yesterday to Jawbone
Question #1 What is Jawbone? A place to do off-road riding near Mojave. It looks like Apple Valley, but there are trails and its part of the Red Canyon State Park.

Question #2 Does every state have a place called Red Canyon? It seems, yes, they do. I think there should be a name registry so people like me don't get confused. Or at least states should be required to choose something more original than Red as a description.

Question #3 What the heck were you doing there? I was riding (along) in Josh's buggy. It was fantastic fun. I'm not alowed to drive any kind of of-road vehicle since I was put on quad restriction three years ago when I crashed Josh's dad's quad at Dumont. (Totally not my fault. It was only my third time ever riding and I was in a place I should not have been.) The crash itself was semi-spectacular. I fell off, started to roll down a hill, then the quad started to tumble and rolled over me and we tumbled down the hill. Hence, I'm not so keen on driving off-road vehicles. But riding along? WHOOHOO fun!!

Back to the Pack which was alone for one night. Now, I've not checked the garage, nor really any part of the backyard, but my initial survey of the homestead shows minimal to no damage. This is a definate improvement. On the bad side, somehow Clark had blood crusted to his right ear. I imagine that it had something to do with a wrestling match. Or a fight with Earl. In any case perhaps Randi and Earl are becoming more mature. Or maybe there's nothing left to destroy.
