Volunteering While RVing?

September 1, 2020 This weekend, Bruce and I watched a YouTube video of Phil and Stacy from “You, Me and the RV” or “Today Is Someday”. They were volunteering with “A Year to Volunteer” at the Coastal Oaks Church that had been hit by Hurricane Harvey. With our recent volunteering at the Wild Bear Nature […]

Roasted Beets

From my childhood, I recall loving picked beets. I was always fascinated how bright red the vinegar turned from the beets. 1 large beet or 2 small beets makes a good serving for one person

Southwestern Succotash

As a child, I hated butterbeans or lima beans with a passion; as an adult, I find I still can not stand them. As such, I never liked succotash, until I had it at a restaurant in Colorado. They didn’t use the dreaded butterbeans or lima beans and it was a wonderful dish. This my […]

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day

Goodbye, Luna

August 20, 2020 As I write this, my throat is tight, my nose is running, and my eyes are leaking tears. We took my sweet little Luna to vet one last time today. I will remember the joy and delight she showed as she raced around the yard, when she played with her balls, and […]

One More Med for Luna

August 18, 2920 If you read my post, Last Days for Luna?, you know that Luna is struggling. The vet wants to try giving her one more medication to increase her appetite. Luna did decide to eat some chicken last night. She didn’t eat a lot, but she does seem to feel a little better […]

August 17, 2020 One of my friends from work took a couple of stunning pictures and she agreed to let me share them. The fire in Colorado is providing spectacular sunrises and sunsets.
