We want to thank everyone who made such a difference in her life, helping her to leave this world knowing she was loved, cared for and appreciated.

Fantastic Toy Friday


A little more political incorrectness. but somehow it's hard to get away from cowboys ans Indians in the 1950's.  I loved my tepee and would spend a large part of July and August camping in the backyard over night! Enjoyed the bow and arrows too - and I never put my eye out - honestly, that's not why I wore glasses!!!

A Small Score - but Fun!


Daughter Jenny and I hit a small thrift shop 
earlier this week- didn't find a lot - but a few good things.


 A lovely rubber stamp for a (!) $1.00
A 60 year old bridge score card!


And 2 white escutcheons, 
that will look stellar on the front of a journal!

Great Journaling Spots


Nothing more fun than grabbing your journal, 
ordering a latte and settling down for an afternoon 
of sketching, writing, sipping, sight-seeing and dreaming.


 Whether it's down the block at the local quay,


 a small restaurant in Italy,


 or the Latin Quarter of Paris,

  

or even a late breakfast near the Eiffel Tower. 
 No better way to spend the day!
Grab your journals and sketch bags and  let's go!

Life on the Coast



Extra large lure on a shop a block and a half away
 from the sea in here Morro Bay!  Now that would catch a BIG fish!!!
Have a great weekend.

Fantastic Toy Friday


Remember Wagon Train? I never missed it - the covered wagons, the wagon master, the scout, the Indians?  The wild wild west! I'd put on my cowboy duds and sit glued to the old black and white TV set. and when it wasn't on I'd play with my my little "Wagon Train" set. Wow - we surley went for cowboys and Indians back in the late '50's, early '60's - never realizing how much of it was so politically incorrect.  Still, a fond memory of childhood.
