@junipermonkeys I’ve spent a lot of time in the Lakes Basin. I consider it one of the most beautiful places in California. From Clio to Bassett’s it’s just incredible! Especially with snow on the Buttes…

Fiberoptic and server farms are melting down as we speak!

Anni is now 18 months and she's probably reached her adult size.
She's an amazingly smart and althetic dog, with a sweet, but diabolical, personality. Absolutely love her!!! ❤️

Three Brothers and Bridalveil
One of my favorite vistas in Yosemite Valley is the tunnel view. Especially on days like the day I captured this image. We had camped in the valley the previous night and it snowed most of the night.
This image shows the magic of winter in Yosemite Valley with Bridalveil Falls flowing in the trough of the valley of the Three Brothers.

@medley56 She's trained not to jump up on counters/tables/etc and she never does when people are watching. But the millisecond you step out of the room -- even if she's sound asleep -- she makes her move. She's too smart for her own good!

@ferricoxide She jumps over 36" tall kid/critter gates.
She jumps in, steals something and then jumps out, in one fell swoop. She's a VERY athletic puppy!

@amyfou Love this! Too cute.

Bernedoodle puppy, Anni, is going on 8 months now. She's 44 lbs and tall enough to snatch anything within about 16" from the edge of any counter top or table. She is a very accomplished, stealth and sneaky counter surfer! On the upside, when she steals something, she proudly brings it to you. Had that not been the case, all of my wooden cooking utensils would be slivers by now.

She's also an excellent swimmer and loves launching herself into the pool, running at full tilt. So much for having a glass of wine with your feet dipped in the pool... 🐶💦

@Pinchy63 GoldenDoodle?

And I’ve also been reminded how much energy a puppy can have. My BerneDoodle is now 7 months old and my backyard looks like a war zone! lol
