Lost a good friend this week. Had to put her down, she was just so sick and in such pain. She had just turned 9 years. And she'll be sorely missed.

One of my all-time fav' pics of my old garden and backyard. I miss those mornings. (Yes, I made those gardens.)

One of my favorite "sleeping beauty" shots of my little guy. He was four ... and a bit.

I didn't pose him - the kid's just a natural ham! "My L'il Caballero"

Sadly ... no joke. Out there for around 3 hours, and all we caught was a bunch like this one!

... and yes, we really are up in a tree, there!

It must be one VERY comfy toilet! (In case you're wondering ... these signs are posted at a highway rest stop, along the Crooked River, between Bear Lake and McLeod Lake, BC)

Yes, we DID get a little snow, thank you. And how was YOUR Monday morning? (This is what we got dropped on us in the past 24 hrs.)

Just in case you were WONDERING where they were gonna put it! (Ya gotta love living in a town where they think this is necessary.)

Apparently, stoners CAN be firefighters ... but the COPS are watchin' ya. (Actually, Hixon and Stoner are two small side-by-side communities in Central B.C.)
