We gained her trust through FOOD, and she eventually led my daughter to her nest of FOUR little secrets - oh, gosh, what to do?  How could we go home knowing there was a mother and four babies hidden away there with no food source and no water anywhere - and nobody around.  Yes, we eventually got them all and brought them home - they are here in my home now resting up from the dramatic rescue - the mother is wild so it was very traumatic for her.

I guess our next move will be to get them all to the vets in a few days - after I can finally get to pick up the mother, that is!  I have named her Effie Pearl. Her four little fluffy children are:  Opal; big Boss; Peaches; and Diamond Back.  I will keep Effie Pearl and Opal, and will be finding homes for the other three when the time is right for that.

We hiked in the mountains, walked trails, explored caves, (some) did the 10 zip lines (not me); did exercises and cardio in the evenings, walked up and down a very steep mountain hill ever day, and more. We all came home very happy.This is my kind of vacation - beading every day for hours, mornings and nights, and laughing till we cried with friends over silly and crazy things.
