So much snow...

After receiving snow over and over and over again, this is how my vehicle feels.

San Francisco

During my recent trip to San Franciso, I was able to spend part of the day wandering around the city. Here is the story of my day from my camera's point of view...

Fishermans Wharf was a world in and of itself. There were so many different scenes. This rainbow was a great start and reminder to enjoy the day at the playground that God gifted me.

I was able to take this great ride on a ferry. The coolest aspect of the boat ride was going under The Golden Gate Bridge.

The ferry also went around Alcatraz. There is such a sobering spirit around the island. That land has such a death giving spirit to it. I wonder if someday it will be redeemed for something beautiful and life giving?

When you see a massive sign that says Ghirardelli, how can you pass that by? I was able to stop by and pick up some yummy chocolates. But what actually stole my attention in that plaza was the cute little card shop. Seriously...I should invest in cute card shops...I spend soooo much time in them! Then again, I invested lots of laughter while I was there. Kudos to all you out there that make cards to go in these types of shops.

My last adventure of the evening was a trolley ride. I just couldn't leave without a last look at San Francisco.

You know you're a hick when...

This is what you see when you pull in your driveway...

And this is what you do for evening entertainment...

As we broke up the chair, I realized that I should never have allowed this chair in my house. The things & smells that we found in it were scarry!
We bought this chair at an Amish Mud Sale a couple years ago for $0.50. As we disasembled the chair, we found $0.75 cents in the chair. That's right....we made money off the Mud Sale!

Books, Books and more Books

Like the idea of making a shelf like this along the top of a room.

Simple & Purple

Love this table, flowers and basket sitting in the middle of a lavender room. Relaxing!

Bentley is neutered!

However...
A couple days after his neutering he got a nasty blood blister in the operating zone. Yes, his unmentionables were the size of apples.

The vet suggested we ice it. Seriously, have they ever tried icing a dog down there? So, we put a pair of underware on him to hold the bag of ice and gave him a peanut butter kong. Didn't quite work, but we were laughing our heads off!
