Art Work Friday

-
Finally, I was able to get at least one picture of the beautiful cardinal that has been singing to me in the morning. He sits atop a post on our deck and the only way to get a picture is from my kitchen window.  I need to be still because I see him watching and then I only have one shot before he flies off.  So I'm sure I will get other opportunities but at least enjoy this one.  Now please disregard the unsightly background.  We took our above ground pool out 2 years ago, yes 2 years ago and now we are taking the river rock that we had all around it and piling it up, and then we will need to get some a lot of fill.  Then figure out what kind of patio we want there.  This will probably take another 2 years. Have a great day where ever you are!

    Gorgeous photo!!! There is an endangered woodpecker here that I have tried desperately to get photos of, but he keeps flying off.

A little change of scenery.....

This past weekend I was visiting with my old neighbor at her home in Michigan. September is very nice in the Grand Rapids area, warm days and cooler nights. It was refreshing to escape the humidity of SW Florida. There are sooooo many apple orchards in the area, and she chose one that she had not been too.  So here are just a few pictures.  No pumpkin patch or pumpkins.  Enjoy!

Learning something new....

-
They say as you get older you should continue to learn something new to keep your body and mind active.  Well, I certainly qualify for this. In December, I took sailing lessons, it was fun, frustrating and fantastic.  This has been fun on so many levels.  Just being on the water takes me to a very relaxing space.  Along with learning to sail comes taking pictures of the adventure, which isn't new, but taking videos is something new and then what do you do with all those videos. Well, you learn how to create something with them, which I did. I have created a YouTube channel to share this new adventure.  My friend and I are avid coffee drinkers and not decaf, which we incorporated in our channel name.   Our channel name is DeepSixDecaf . So after about 3 weeks of pictures and videos today I was able to post a video. Please stop over to the channel and take a look, here is a link for you.  Thanking you for taking the time to check it out!  Stay tuned for more adventures o

New addition update....

...adding to the existing 4 legged creatures could be closer than I realize.  No, it's not Mushi or Christmas Cookie or even Trevor.  They are two little dogs that were rescued from a back yard breeder.  Now I'm only taking one because my husband would blow a gasket if I came home with both of them.  Although it could be tempting.  Here is a picture their foster mom sent me.  Right now their names are Meatball and Taco but as I  will be changing his name.  I'm leaning towards Trevor or Tanner but that too could change. So on Friday Colby and I will be taking a road trip, 2 hours west of our Pennsylvania home, to meet these little fur kids and see, hopefully, which one he gets along with.  You never know he may not like either of them.  So remember if you thinking of adding a pet to your home and not sure if you want the puppy route, look into adopting.  There are so many pets out there that need furever homes and got to where they are due to no fault of their own. So
