Revisiting Oregon has always been on my to-do-list
Since our last visit in 2014, I have always dreamt of coming back

Since we moved up to NorCal, the 10hrs up crazy drive has shorten to 8 hrs!
Not too bad right, we arrived at Bend, Oregon on our second day of trip

This is an outdated trip, but I still want to record every foot step of ours before I forget
:)
This is us + Lionel during the Thanksgiving trip~ We travelled north for (only) 4 hours reaching this Mt Shasta
Just a short trip tho, we reached McCloud Fall
Tiru tooo handsome my son
Quickly jump to our second day, we drove up to Cystal Lake
It was a terrible drive but my RAV4 made it! (I love u!)
Tiru always has the best shot
Pic is always the best with perfect weather
Soaking in her fav water
Tinker u not cold?!
Frozen lake!!! (tiny tiny)
We really want to let Lionel run free, but afraid of chasing a "wild wolf" lolll

2018年 秋  我們回來了心情：雜    已經數不清是第幾次來到了這個熟悉的地方
上次來  又是何時  怎摸好像  想不起來了





Yosemite  你覺得除了我  還有誰曾記得這個地方
記得那顆子彈滿孔的樹（笑）





所以第一天  第二天  我都止不住淚水的  哭了





可是怎摸也分不清  這眼淚到底是為了什摸而流的





是不是因為我們再也無法回到過去了





是不是因為  大女兒老了  我只能揹著她





是不是看不見女兒的笑容  我不知道她開不開心
孩子妳  是不是無法再像以前那樣  看見這些美景





還是那個眼淚是為了  那曾經五隻狗  說走就走的旅行





這地方充滿太多太多的回憶了  太多了  

如果今天我們只是來到一個新的探險地點  我就不會哭了  對吧  對吧





腦海中不經意的一個一個數著  一個  兩個  三個  四個

一年  兩年  三年
 




我們花了多少年  多少的時間  去追尋著這些消縱即逝的色彩





消縱即逝對吧   

孩子老了  身旁的你或妳或你  都還是離開了

可是卻還是不死心的  想繼續帶著妳們走下去

也許只是  根深的太任性吧





後來的我  也是笑了  儘管不是一場小狗掌之旅
可是我還是在隙縫中  看到兩個小短腿  無所畏懼的橫衝直撞





我還是（稍微）收拾好了心情   拿起相機做自己最喜歡的事

 It has been a while since we are on the blog, I havent decided to stop for quite a year ago
But whenever I look back to these stories, they are always the best memories I could ever have....

So, I guess, I would just randomly keep writing until this place is permantly shut down :)
 

California has been suffering from drought for years, but this year we have been experiencing a tons of rain.
The rain brought us this wonderful wild flowers this year :)



It was back in 2014 when we have had our first poppy viewing.
We missed the classic SoCal orange poppy and have been desparate to find more every Spring....

But nope nope, usually it just blooms for a week or so and its gone before we knew it.....





Finally, the wild flowers have gone crazy all over SoCal this year!!
We picked Walker Canyon as it is one of the few dog friendly places to view the poppy.





The traffic was bad, but it was all worth it rite?!  :)





I actually don't remember the poppy we found 3 years ago in Antelope Canyon was actually orange.
Those are yellow!!!





Still, the flowers are nice whether they are yellow or orange.





Ha, this wild flowers are not poppy, they are just the most common yellow flowers you can see every where.
Our Tinker is so short that this tiny teeny 5cm flowers look HUGE!





Tinker just turned 3 this week. We would be (should be?) holding a birthday party for her this week.









Happy pre-birthday Tinker.














The place is HUGE, we manage to find spots that were crowded with people. 




We are hoping to see more of the orange poppies in Antelope, which is not expected to bloom in late March-April.
(If we are not lazy, ooops)





I hope the dogs wont get too high since they ate alot of flowers!!!

It's the time of the year when all the holidays are back to back together.
We had a 5-day break over the Thanksgiving holiday...ooops, also the last Thanksgiving as a student.
We humans were lazy enough to plan a decent trip so instead, we decided to go for a small trip in Palm Springs.
Basically, hiking, eating, shopping, and SHOPPING!!!!! (and of course, laying comfortably in our airbnb).
We took the pups out for hike on the every first day so that they could use out their energy (so that moms could spend that night shopping).
There aint many off leash trails in this area, but we managed to find one highly recommanded trails!
Somehow at the start of the trail we met other hikers that excitedly told us that there were sheeps up there in the mountain.

我想 人生就是這樣一場又一場的冒險及旅行   出發前的扭扭捏捏
旅行當下的過程以及讚嘆   可是當旅行結束時  一場失落的空  席捲而來





在每場冒險中  其實我們不知道迎面而來的會是什摸
有時候是場精星動魄的場景  有時是哎唷這好普通的小失望





我還是不是很確定  是否每次都得到了什摸  是否每次都可以說我不後悔  





繞了一圈又感到疲憊的時候   想好好休息

 
Since year 6, I have been celebrating Tiffy's birthday. Can't believe this little girl has been on mommy's side for more than 15 years, and guess what, that's even more than half of my life! Mommy can't really imagine what life would be like without this warm-hearted little girl. She went through my life as I transform from a girl, a tennager, and now a low-paid student aka worker. Mom isn't really sure where we would be in the very next stage of our life, but as always, I certain you'll be there.

 
It has been a while since SiaSia went out on a trip with us. 
Yes, she's doing great, both her and her mom.
We went to our favorite place again, Pepperdine University. You just can't get to find luxuary grass field beside here.
Arggg...get away from me, humans.
Look like Tiffy isn't really statified with this look.
 
Tiffy got her birthday cake from THE DOG BAKERY. Her dad bought a cute pink leash as her birthday present  :)
It has been hard on these days to line the kids up. Look at their terrible posing faces. 
Yeah, now the smiles. Everyone smiles as human starts distributing the cake.
Definitely having smiles on Tiru's silly face. 
Few weeks before that day, we brought Tiffy for her first grooming experience. Kinda another b'day gift from her daddy (her daddy was generous!!). I always have wanted to take Tiffy for dog grooming since I did a really bad job keeping her nice and fluffy. However, Tiffy is such a sensitive girl that I afraid she would not feel well.....Well, it turned out just fine. See how cute Tiffy is after the cut! Everyone can tell she is might younger  :P (no doubt even the groomer).
This was the first trip after Tiru starting home rehab from her second ACL injury. She is doing like a CHAMP! Seriously, she ran a whole lot that day! It was her first run after the surgery back in July. To be honest, I was pretty emotional, my boy finally got back to default, AGAIN. Please please please, no more re-tear. Mom was, literally, broke.
My silly little Prince. 
We are about to go through a big change in our lives, but we are a little uncertain where our future goes. I should stay positive, as I know all four of you would still be by my side, paws to paws. :)
Happy Birthday my little birthday girl. 美國萬歲（？誤）

這到底是哪一年的文章啊...（還好啦今年初而已哈哈哈）





我們去年年末旅行的最後一個景點  森林踏雪雪





每次玩到最後幾天小捧有還不累 大人早就累死啦
整個就呈現誒誒誒 等下爬完吃什摸的心態？！ XD





上一年的雪之旅踢魯超早陣亡的 所以今年可是特地準備了一個 包包 來揹踢魯
好樣的 最後幾天踢魯還走得動～～





到底怎樣怎摸會有一隻狗才10歲就如此deconditioning!!!





尼看尼看看 姊姊都14歲了還可以走全程沒在賴皮的！！！！！





提提諧星二號來的哈哈





其實是很想念雪啦  一月看完雪我們都沒有雪可以玩啊啊啊啊









其實 Colorado 靠腰腰的冷   還好當初五隻都沒截肢大家都平平安安歸隊





最後一天我們又跳到 Valley of the God    是一個超酷的景點誒誒誒！！





不過並沒有一個official walking trail   這景點根本是拿來給你開車看風景的啊哈哈ㄚ
整個超級off road開起來超好玩的！！！！！！   不過還是乖乖開 4WD 進來吧.....





哎呀 這台 Jeep 還算好開 除了一次壘殘進雪 油箱很小開到沒油之外   剩下都還好啦哈哈哈雪地打滑都撐住了！！





最後附上（自以為）完美的ending  今年底應該去哪兒玩呢？！  快 我totally have no idea!!!

=================== Day 1 Rainbow Pools =======================It has becoming a routine that we go for a trip during long weekend, 
so here we are again over the Labor's Day weekend, spending our time in Groveland (few miles from the west entrance of Yosemite)





We spent the 3 days at 3 different trails/pools, but we were actually all hanging along the Tuolumne River. 





On the first day, we went to Rainbow pool, a site where it's really ideal for family with kids.
And yay, not ideal for dog owners since there are simply too many HUMANS, haha





We still managed to find a place for the furrykids to swim by walking further up the stream.
The water is relative warm so it was another practice for Tinkerbell.

Ha, our little-crab-saver.





The 2 were crazy about the little crab.





Tiffy swam once we got there, which is like once in every 5 years (ha)
After getting herself cool up, she wondered in the woods.

你看不到我看不到我看不到我～～





Tissue is just not afraid of the water no matter where we go.





Tiru is making her recovery after her second ACL surgery, doing pretty good after almost 2 months. 
But we had to leash her up so that we didnt have to SEARCH for her later on.....





Humans crossed the river leaving the crying Tinkerbell behind. I swear, she almost cried her lung out.





Tissue: Quick quick quick, throw out my crabby. 





Tiffy was extremly cute getting her paws wet   >////<





To avoid humans, you have to find your way up up the stream, the water here is pretty still and safe for tiny pups like ours. 


================= Day 2 Tuolumne River Canyon Trail  =====================



On the second day, we headed out to the Tuolumne River Trail
I have to admit that the drive there is............magnificient???!
