Beauty for Free

Sunday Drive

Tabblo: Sunday Drive

Hubby kids and I were out taking a little Sunday drive yesterday.  We are considering buying some property and building a new house so out we went yesterday in search of some places we'd found for sale on the computer.  There is some beautiful stuff  out there but it is a good bit farther out than where we live now which means it's a longer drive to the grocery, shopping, liquor store, out of pizza delivery range, out of DSL range, etc......  However the mountain and lake views are amazing especially for the price of the lots.  The lots are all 3-5 acres and are well within the price range we are looking to spend but I'm not sure if I can handle being quite so far out  - wondering if our friends will come visit us! Ha!  Kinda feels like you're headed the secret route to the bat cave.  I imagine if we had to give directions it'd be, "go down X road for 10 miles then when you think you've gone to far go another 4 miles! and turn right past the cow pasture!"

Garden Show (last year)

Tabblo: Garden Show (last year)

Garden Show March 2006

I look forward to the Garden Show every March.  My mom and I always make time to go and we always have so much fun "oohh'ing and ahh'ing" over all the exhibits.  Each year brings something new that we want to try in our own gardens and we always walk away with some new plants to try our hand at cultivating as well.  With a weather forcast of rain rain and more rain followed by 30 degree highs for next week I thought I'd dream a little and remind myself I've got this to look forward to in another two months.

To Those I've Loved Before

Tabblo: To Those I've Loved Before

Open your heart and Rescue a friend for life!

These are a few of the dogs I have helped rescue, foster, or have helped to place in new "forever homes."  I volunteer with the Boxer Rescue in my area and these are some of the sweet smooshy faces I have rescued over the years.  All these darling dogs come to our organization through no fault of their own.  We rescue them from certain death at pounds or shelters, and some are owner surrenders (he digs, we're having a baby, he ate my couch, she jumped the fence, I can't afford her anymore, blah blah blah and on and on the excuses we hear.)  Our organization gets them vet care (most have to be treated for heartworms), we nurse them back to health if they've been neglected,  and we board them or foster them till we find new homes for them.
