White Sands National Monument - Jeff & Miki

This was one of my favorite places to visit on this camping trip, and is one of our "bucket list" items - White Sands National Monument!  Jeff was great and got up really early one morning so we could be there during the early morning light, which is one of the great times for photography!  These are the fun shots of Jeff & Miki!


Here's an image of Jeff on one of the dune trails, and I use that term lightly, since the wind there keeps shifting the sands around.  It gives you just a bit of an idea of how big this area is.  This particular shot is really just a tiny, tiny piece of the entire sandy monument, and look how small Jeff is in comparison!


Miki just loved racing around on the dunes!  She was a bit confused, tho, because she couldn't find the water!!  I keep telling her she has the best life of all her puppy siblings, and I think she'd definitely agree with me on this morning!


Jeff decided to challenge Miki to a race up the dunes - not the best challenge he's ever issued to anyone!!  He jokingly said it took him about 120 steps to get up this dune and only about 30 steps to go down it!


The sand dune version of  Rocky - is this Rocky XII or something?


I think you know who won the race down the dunes.......
 
Enjoy!
