With the unofficial start of summer finally here, I would like to share this cautionary tale of love and loss. It happened in 2016, when my summer romance took a sad and tragic turn. So there we were enjoying a beautiful day at the beach. The sun was shining. The waves were crashing. The smell […]

Fool me once, shame on Deer. Fool me twice, shame on me. I can’t believe I fell for the Deer’s tricks again! For the past few years, I’ve been in an epic battle with the Deer in my neighborhood. Every spring these delinquents come sauntering into MY yard like they own the place, and proceed […]

Grandma Rue’s modeling career began when she was asked to pose for the 2010 catalog. Rue was very familiar […]
I’m feeling a little unappreciated today. Grandma is training to become a yoga instructor. This month’s assignment is to develop a chair yoga class. Sure the routine Grandma came up with is good. But why didn’t she ask me for my advice? After all, I’ve been Mom’s chair yoga instructor for years. The following are […]
This weekend was almost perfect! It all began bright and early on Saturday morning when Mom and Dad took us to one of our favorite beaches! Due to the recent storm, the waves churned up a lot of fragrant seaweed to roll in and explore. We even made two new dog friends! Sorry, I’m drawing […]
