This ‘n That …

We took dinner in to our neighbors tonight.   Lynn made his absolutely mouth watering delicious honey chicken to serve over wild rice with sides of steamed veggies and cold fruit.    He tripled the recipe so that we could eat some and even have left overs.     We delivered the meal to the folks next door and [...]

Amateur Photography … but … still …

Mossy covered trees covered in dust from the well used gravel road.   Kind of eerie, huh?   This looks like the perfect spot for a scary movie.   I for one would hate to be alone in this forest in the dark.   I loved this lazy river.   I imagine there are plenty of times it is [...]

I Just have Three Questions …

        On our way to the beach on this blustery day we stopped for drinks and sandwiches to eat once we drove out onto the packed, wet sand to find a good place to park our little car     We do that every now and then; drive down to the water’s front, point ourselves straight out [...]

From Our Back Yard …

Happiness Comes In All Sizes

                                             I won’t need to narrate these pictures much … They show happy cousins at the beach.  I wish there were seven more here.    What a perfect day it was!   I was finally able to take off my stocking cap and yellow sweatshirt!    My blood is used to the hot desert.     There were some dare [...]

Go Karts Never Lose Their Fun

  The Nordquists enjoy one last bit of fun on the Go Karts before heading home for the 4th of July celebration at Warren’s.  The pictures are self explanatory.   Luca barely qualified to go alone and I love how she is stretching her legs to reach the pedals.   She did a pretty good job; only [...]

Ready for the 4th of July!
