About Me

Baby Groot.


Our little guy in his Baby Groot costume
for Halloween 2017. He had a great time
and ended up with quite a bit of candy.
We both had fun taking him out and loved
having our neighbors come down the lane
to our sweet little cottage for treats from us.

Night Time Scenes.


Our tea cupboard, a.k.a. as the Butler's
Pantry. A tiny wall lamp to light the way.


Our living room, where the soft light
provides us with a quiet place to reflect.

.Book Basket.


My little shopping basket doubles as
a book basket when it's not holding food.

Alcove Desk.


When we were building our new home, we
realized that the space under the stairs was
going to be totally a wasted space. So we
designed a desk alcove so that we had one
more spot to write and keep life organized.
I think this turned out pretty good, don't you?

Organizing my Work.


I have two contracts with the two charities I
work for. One is full time and one is part time.
I often have to literally lay out my files and work
in order to keep it all straight. This was just
before we were off for our event. I wanted to
make sure my work was done before we left
so I could truly enjoy the evening. And that's
what this was all about in this picture that day.

Spooky Fundraiser.


 

We recently hosted a fundraising event for
our theatre production set for next August.
It was a great night, with yummy treats (see
above), music, a authentic screening of the
Twilight Zone and a dance part way though. 
We made money, but more importantly, we
raised awareness of our production and since
then, more donations and offers have come in.
Worth the planning, the meetings, the big
discussions and all the sweat equity that night.

The Shining.


Our beautiful landscape when the sun
is shining on the freshly fallen snow.


A blue sky with few clouds and bright
sun to warm the Earth. Incredible shot.


Wishing the snow would be just this
amount for the entire Winter season.


But we know that soon it will be in abundance
and we'll somehow find ways to survive it all.

Fall Sunsets.


The sun is low now and setting much
earlier each day than the day before.


It makes the world around us, our
scenery outside our window, so cozy.
