Arnold and Newlin: 1966

Spuffy was a pure breed boxer, sired by the champion boxer living next door. He got his name from a cross between Ruffy (Joel's unimaginative choice from their first dog) and Spot (Allan's unimaginative choice from a spot on Spuffy's forehead).

We had Spuffy for only a short time. Arnie was allergic so he could no longer tend to the dog, and Newlin took care of Spuffy until she was late in pregnancy. Since a neighbor was moving out of town to a rural setting, we gave Spuffy to them for a life in the country.

Arnold and Newlin: Road Trip West 1965, Mesa Verde and the Rockies

Arnie and Newlin take their sons to Mesa Verde National Park and traversing the Rockies they encounter snow remaining from the winter and spring.

It was the boys' first time to encounter snow; sure enough, they slipped and slid on their backsides, getting their pants wet.
