Currently I have a few things going on and some of them I haven’t mentioned here.

Honestly, I won’t write about every day with Toby, but I managed to get enough photos for another post.  Some are from yesterday afternoon and some are from today.  🙂 I put his harness and leash on to walk him in the yard area on the other side of the back fence, just because this… Continue reading Day 2 with Toby

After the fog wore off this morning, it turned out to be another beautiful day and it was time to pack up and head for Crocodile Bridge.

It seems like I am now re-entering the No Fixed Address (NFA) part of my life again.  This is my 2nd time doing this since I moved 3 times in 2 years, way back in my younger days.
