    I know how you feel, it is so hard when your friends get this awful monster called cancer, my best friend all the way from grade school has it in her liver and bones and is on 3 different chemos in a trial test.  Debbie will have lots of prayers surrounding her Wednesday night about 7:30pm.

    How did your party go?  Everyone have a good time to remember?

    Hope all is well with everyone and Sierra Canada has been making the news here is the US with no sanitation pick up and the rats overrunning the city.  How awful that must be and the oder must be awful too.  Is the strike over yet?  Hope so.

    There were 2 baby deer in our yard today I tried to get a picture but they are so small and they blend in well in the grass and shade.

    Can you see them on the far left in the middle of the picture.  They still have their white spots.  Hope all has a good day.

    Good morning mountain gals.  Hope everyone is having a wonderful day.  We've got a monsoon going here but it is so nice and COOL that who am I to complain.  At least until I need a boat.  :)

    Hey Jazzy girl I am sending my jon boat just in case you need it to paddle to the store.  We ended up only getting wind and lightening, no rain so I am jealous of your weather.

    Lisa love the little guy watching he is so cute

    Deb, you can tell that poor camel has done something strenuous.  Wouldn't it be fun to actually ride one up the mountain.

    Everyone have a great day

    Estepp, so thankful you did fine.  sleep all you can and rest that body up. Hope you have some help with the kids so you can rest.

    Praying for Debbie that the chemo works and she handles it without getting sick.

    Love the beauty of nature.

    Hello mountains, trees, streams, rivers, flowers, animals and all of nature.  I have a couple of cuties of my own this morning. 

    000_1097.jpg little sweeties picture by spark56_photo

    I don't even know how many kitties we have anymore.  They are each so cute and fun to watch but we are spending a fortune on cat food and they eat lizards, grasshoppers, locusts, etc.

    We turned our jon boat over and there was a copperhead in it, it went under the seat and wouldn't come out.  We tried to smoke it out but as far as we know it is either still under the seat or found a ways out of the boat during the night.  Now I am scared to row across the pond fraid that snake will get me.

    Hope all has a good day.

    Estepp, I did think they were your children, you just look too young to be a "la la". LOL  Aren't grandkids the best.  Hey, I love ya back.

    Lisa, love the old bridge and the rocky streams.  I can see myself wading down them in my old cotton tennis shoes looking for pretty rocks. Also love that blue lake with the snowy mountains around it.  Very nice.

    I just watch the video above again, the scenery just makes me feel at peace as does this song.

    My car broke down so have been riding in an old pick up with no air but today my DH got my car fixed and it is such a blessing.  We are going to splurgh tonight and go have all the crab legs you can eat buffett.  So that is another blessing.  I do love my crab.

    Yum, thats what I'm talking about.

    In the video above is a picture that reminds me of my last plane ride, I looked out the window and all you could see below was clouds.  It was so beautiful, like huge cushions of cotton was holding that plane up.

    I finally got Out of the Fog ordered that Checkum wrote, so should be getting it in the mail in a couple of days.  The library here couldn't get it for some reason so I will donate it after I read it.

    Hope all has a wonderful day.  Enjoy every second.

    Kind of tired tonight, its getting late and I need to get to bed.  It has been a strange day, went to church, worked in the toddler room.  Resigned from my church, toddler room, greeter/usher, snacks for youth group, feeding the hungry on Wed. nights.  Resigned from all of it.  Am going to visit some other churches in the area.  Getting the granddaughter tomorrow for a few days so won't have much computer time but will be back soon.  good night on the mountain.
