A hike up Red Hill in Carbondale, Colorado

A fun hike with spectacular views..

Especially fun when I get to spend time with 

these two very special guides..

Once Upon A Time.....

 Once upon a time...

There was a little princess...

Perfect Fair-weather Football Day...Go Blue!

Beautiful Michigan summer

I love summer....
I love everything about it.
If only summer could last a little longer in Michigan.

Good bye for now.....

As we take our last long look down Banyan Street...

Sophie and I whisper...

"Good bye...for now."

Yet, for some reason, this good bye feels different..

like it may be my last.

"Good bye, sweet island. Thank you for the beautiful years

and for the memories that are etched in my heart forever."

Boca Grande, Florida

Let me linger here in the sunshine...

Boca Grande, Florida

Homeward Bound....

After a two month stay...

On this beautiful little island...

I will leave with a heart full of

wonderful memories 

and a few new friends.

It is always a hope 

that I return again..

To this place I love so very much.

Sunday....

Boca Grande, Florida

A Perfect Boca Grande Day...

Our morning trip begins....

We paddle through the clear waters....

To Little Gasparilla Island where stands the house 

with the 

turquoise roof.

Our little boats rest in the sun as we explore.

Back home we go....

It was....

A Perfect Day!

My favorite place to park....

At the very end of the island...

I often rested at this spot.

Warm tropical sunshine....

The perfect day under the healing sun....

How fast can you run?.....

As storm approaches...

Waiting....

Watching....

Ready..Set...Run!

Snow Day.....

Come and play...

There is lots of new snow to enjoy.

It's a little deep for small doggies...

But lots of fun.

Come play again soon.
