Today while working on my spaces at Country Roads Antiques, I had the opportunity (because I remembered my camera this time) to take some photographs at the store. One of the things I like best about the photos I took today is that they offer you a 'hint' of what it is. I was trying to go for a more artistic look at things. I think some of the photos achieved this. Take a look and enjoy. REMEMBER if you see something you like, call Country Roads Antiques 714-532-3041, Old Town Orange, California.

Wow! what a spectacular event this was. I would like to Thank the girls (Sheryl & Dianne) of Whimzy for promoting this. It is so nice to have a large gathering of artists under one roof and to be able to purchase from them!! To all of the fabulous artists, it was a pleasure meeting you and sharing a wonderful day. Thank you Marilyn for the wonderful earrings, I love my swap gift. If you were not able to attend this falls Glitterfest, you better mark your calendar for the next one. This is an event not to be missed. Here is a sneak peek of Gillterfest fall. Enjoy!!

Knott's Berry Farms


One of the best things about being a certified therapy dog team through the Delta Society is that you are invited to training sessions or continuing education as I like to call them. This weekend Scoop and I participated in bus training with the OCTA. We were able to board, ride and exit the bus along with many other dog teams. A bonus that was offered and I was unaware of, was the chance to go into Knott's Berry Farms amusement park for free. Wow! what a great training place, so in we went. Of course since I was unaware of this opportunity one of the first things I did was to purchase a disposable camera because who knows if we will ever get the chance to do this again and I didn't think to bring my digital camera (note to self don't leave home w/o it...again). We cruised the theme park and then on the way out I had this brilliant idea to get our photo taken in the old time gallery, just like I did when I was a kid. The staff was thrilled to have us, this was the first time they had taken a photo with a dog. As you can tell from the photo we were a happy western duo!

Scoop's Adventures



In Scoop's 2 years with me & my hubby, he has been on several camping trips with hubby, the latest being to Red's Meadow in the Eastern Sierras near Mammoth where the two of them were part of a support group for friends hiking the John Muir trail. Scoop enjoyed 3 days up in the mountains with several small hikes. Being the trip documentor, I think hubby did a great job of capturing Scoop and the places he visited, such as Rainbow Falls, where everyone enjoyed a little water time.
