Backyard Adventure

Sometimes adventure lies in someone else’s backyard. Sierra recently traveled to Sonora in the beautiful Sierra Nevada Foothills. When we arrived there were a few inches of snow on the ground, a real winter treat at only 1,825 feet above sea level. By the next day most of the snow had melted but underneath the snow was a layer of dirt, and sitting on the dirt was a large fleet of dirt movers and shakers. Enjoy the ride as Sierra takes you on a dirty tour while posing with these earth moving, ground shaking, excavating machines. We hope you dig it!

The last bit of snow.



A sweet ol' tractor.

I am Adventure Barbie, hear me ROAR!

"I can walk for miles and miles" - literally, there are several miles of track to explore.

We sighted a giant jack rabbit hiding under this machine, spectacular!



She purrs like a kitten, or maybe more like a CAT.

Working on the chain gang.

How "below" can you go?

Yes, this machine is leaning. It's a slope mower.



I hope my tetanus vaccine is up to date.

A special thank you to Jen and Ken for sharing their lovely ranch. It’s always an adventure!
