Saturday encore ~ Wynonna beats the heat at the day spa

My modus operandi for selecting a post to republish as a "Saturday Encore" is to look back through the entries from the same timeframe in the previous year and pick a favorite. When the post below turned up (originally published on June 7, 2010), I was reminded of how miserably hot it was last year at this time...and just how much I miss Deets. And his sense of humor.



When Saturday's temperature hit triple digits, Wynonna took matters into her own hands,
tipping over her water bowl to make herself a refreshing puddle.



The rejuvenating and restorative properties of a mud facial are not lost on the porcine process.
She dove in snout first.



She was counting on the mud to smooth her wrinkles and tighten her skin as it dried.



Sorry, toots, it's not workin'.

  7. I love your site, visiting often, and this is my first comment to you...lived in AZ for most of my life and traveled around NM, loved the sheer openness. You live a kind of dream I've had...solitude with beloved critters. Your photo stories always make me smile...Lucy is a Queen!

    But somewhere along the way, I lost track of dear Deets and I realize that something happened. If you wrote a post about it, please let me know which one. If you're OK letting me know by writing, then please do. my email is hilltucson@aol.com or leave a message on my blog.

    Take care and Happy Trails!

  11. Wynonna is the best :) I do love that piglet!
    I didn't realize Deets was gone either. I'm so sorry. It's so hard when that happens, but it seems to happen a lot where there are coyotes. We've lost a bunch over the years and I haven't gotten any more either :(

  15. Boy, Wynonna wouldn't let *me* get that close when I visited, much less take my morning nap next to her. That Deets was one special and cool cat. I love thinking that my George has a bit of Deet's incredible spirit.
