Santa Cruz Coast Walk

Sometimes all I need is a nice long walk in the cool air along the Pacific Ocean. Yesterday, we enjoyed a walk along the coast in Santa Cruz, California. The air was clean, the waves were crashing with a South swell, and having Pops with me means the company couldn’t have been better. Coast Views […] Read more…

Staying in the Valley of the Gods

After our Petroglyph hike and our visit to Goosenecks, we had some time to relax at The Valley of the Gods B&B, so I took a moment to snap a few photos of the glorious afternoon.

Green Tip Tuesday – Green Magazines

My latest “going green” commitment has to do with my addiction to magazines – remember my confession earlier this year? I must tell you, with joy, that so many magazines are coming out with digital subscriptions now – I love this techie time we live in. Slowly, but surely, I’m switching my subscriptions over to […] Read more…

iPad – Help, I want one!

Have I already mentioned how very much I LOVE techie gadgets??? I know that this particular desire doesn’t fit too well with being eco-friendly and loving the simple, handmade things in life. My only excuse is I’m human. AND well, I really, really, really love them and use them and want to know every single […] Read more…
