This past weekend we were lucky enough to welcome visitors to our new house here in South Dakota. It was fantastic to see Pete, Anne and the boys. There was lots of laughter & some adventure. One of the things we did was visit the Sertoma Butterfly House. It’s a very cool place to check [...]
This was the scene at my parents’ house on Christmas Eve. I was deathly ill over the holidays but I did take a few minutes to bundle up & go out to capture some of the snowfall. It has been a very snowy winter this season…it reminds me of my childhood when we’d have days [...]
In this month’s rehash I’m mostly going to post pictures of random things & the visit with my brother TJ, his wife Jen & their boy little A (now I have the Jetsons theme song stuck in my head). October was a month of more struggles for me & Abe. We’ve made some major decisions [...]
Just a few pics from around my yard today.
My favorite tree…waning with autumn's slide to winter.
snow resting on my rosebushes
solitary scarlet leaf & a dusting of snow
naked branches scraping at the sky
rain drops faltering, resisting gravity
I’m feeling like a trip down memory lane again today & this is another one the that makes me laugh ’til I cry &/or snort. Whenever Abe really wants to make me laugh he will mention our one & only “real” vacation. Back when life was good & full of promise we decided to take [...]

My pink hibiscus–it makes me smile.
Saturday 9/26–a beautiful [...]
Okay no writing, just pictures of my day trip…one I’ve always wanted to make & finally did. ENJOY!
Author’s Note: I started this nearly a week ago…as you can see it’s taken a while to finish this but I’m going to keep writing it as if no time at all has passed. In fact it may not have as I could possibly have found a way to go back in time & finish [...]
I haven’t been up to doing much lately…mostly I can make it through a day at work & back home. It’s strange to feel this tired & even worse this weak. Slowly I’m doing my best to get back the strength that not feeling well has sucked out of me. To that end I decided [...]
I’m taking the lazy way & posting a bunch of pics rather than write. I’m too tired right now to string very many words together. Enjoy the pics! (All of these were taken when Abe’s brother visited us from Missouri.)
