Miki at White Sands

The last time we were at White Sands, Miki was a number of years younger than she is now.  However, being on what I think she thought of as a very large beach brought out the puppy in her!

Racing up the Dunes

I guess she forgot that her hips are a bit stiffer now – she raced up those dunes so quick I barely had time to capture this shot!

On the Dunes

Once she was up on top, she just had to trot around checking out her new territory!

Strolling Along

She did take time out to wait for Jeff to catch up, tho…

Surveying Her Domaine

She really had the dunes in this area all to herself (and us!).  It’s great that this National Monument allows dogs, altho technically she was supposed to be on a leash.  (We won’t tell if you won’t!)

Heading Down the Dunes

Ok, exploring is done – now, she’s racing Jeff back to the Jeep!  Oh, and what looks like packed snow is actually packed sand that has been plowed so that cars can drive and park in this area of the dunes.

Enjoy!
