As you’ve seen – or I’ve mentioned – we have a tarp covering our house to protect us from the wind and protect our roof and everything on it from heavy snow. It also has enabled us to keep the motorhome just as warm while using our heat a LOT less, thereby saving us money …

The View From My Window – Dec. 18, 2020
This was actually yesterday’s view, but most mornings are similar, I just love “my” turkeys! (Pete took my window screen off, so future views will be clearer.) Yesterday was a busy day, we both started and finished our Christmas shopping! I like to do it that way, getting ideas in my head for possible gifts, …

VIDEO UPLOAD – Dec. 16, 2020
I love our wild turkeys. As a bird person at heart (I’ve been a long-time parrot owner as well) the fact that they come so readily to our yard to eat is one of my greatest daily thrills. So when the flock dwindled down from 3 dozen + visitors during the summer to just 2 …

The View From My Window ~ Dec. 16, 2020 Edition
The tarp over RV is temporarily pulled back, so I get part of the view of our yard for the duration. (I hadn’t realized how depressed I’d get when I couldn’t see anything, but those few days that my window was covered, before the tunnel collapsed, I was in a serious funk!) The first thing …

❄️❄️❄️FIRST SNOW❣️❄️❄️❄️
Anybody who knows me at all knows that winter is my very favorite time of the year. ❄️ Just thinking about winter gets me through the detestable heat of summer. ❄️ When we moved to this lot last spring I couldn’t WAIT to see the beauty of it covered in snow! ❄️ Well that process …

Laid-back Kinda Monday
Today was one of the last 2 warm days of the season, at 75F and sunny with a light breeze, it was perfect. So I put everything else aside and chose to spend the day out on the patio with Maisie and of course Pete. I did some fall cleanup out there, with Maisie’s help …

Turkeys in the Snow
Pete woke me up to see it ❄️SNOWING❄️ today! I love snow and this was my first snow of the season, so it was very exciting! And the Tom Family group came to visit too! After a while the rest of the family groups also came for a visit, we hadn’t seen them for a …

What About Chuy?
What about Chuy indeed! I post a lot about Maisie, as she and I are joined at the hip, but Chuy is a big part of our family too! So here’s his story and some pictures (of course). Back in 2016 I lost my minpin Pharaoh to heart disease. (I’m still not over it; he …

Sunday Visitors; Amazing Maisie
It was a chillier day today but the sun was bright so we decided to make a fire in the firepit and enjoy God’s creation anyway! I don’t recall if I’ve shared Maisie’s story, or how God made her perfect for me and got us together, what she was like, etc. but she was a …

Elliot the Meyers Parrot Is A Winner!
Hi guys…in going through my downloaded FB files I found a photo that I’ve been looking for for a long time. About 10 years ago I listened to a morning radio show every day, and at one point they had a contest for people to send in their favorite morning pictures. Winners would be included …
