My blog is a way for me to share in the wonder of each day. I know there are others like me that due to medical issues have our days numbered and would like to make the most of them in a positive and gifting way for ourselves and for those around us.

FINALLY....I'm back.. We had our end of the season camping trip and boat rides and had a ball. We even celebrated 2 birthdays while we were there. This was my one and only camping trip for the year so I really enjoyed it.


First Evening at the Lake




First Evening at the Lake My daughter, Amber, the other camera gal Our 1 yr old Bully Dog, Mable's first boat ride! Mable stays by hubby just to be safe Our Veteran Bully Dogge Myrtle stands guard over Mable as the little one contemplates abandoning ship Had to have a fire..hotdogs and marshmellows, yummy The boys show us how it's done My brother gives marshmellow roasting lessons to three students from India who joined us for the weekend. They had never tasted never a marshmellow never mind roasting one. Tulisa gives it a try first and become proficient immediately Rama goes next and has no trouble roasting or eating the yummy treat Siva follows up a little more tentatively but enjoys his first experience quite well Girls and Boys had to come back for seconds even though the giant marshmellow were each as large as 3 of the regular sized ones. Just too much fun. One Nephew just had to charbroil his just becase he could..of course. Amber and her youngest cuddle by the fireside. What better place for a little togetherness. Take a guess...... It's the dancing moon of course... Then of course the was the birthday party... My dad turned 79 years old and Rama just turned into a young whipersnapper of a man... Uh..Oh... Rama knows something is up..... Talk about pie..oh..cake in the face.. What a sport.. (especially since it was the second time in a week that Rama got a pie or cake in the face..) Rama knows how to share too, with my brother, the culprit that is.. Dad is happy as a lark to be face cake free, which leaves more to eat, yum Bet you can't guess who that is....smile Curiosity..moss twisted it's way up this dead bush by the lake's edge...hmmm Eeek...Look what the kids found...a Trianchula (sp?) Gotta have a little excitement.. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: "What goes around, comes around"...Just ask my brother, the cake instigator
