The Cemetery at Yosemite


 I know some people think cemeteries are creepy, scary places but I love strolling through the old ones! So much history!!!  I still remember when I was a little girl my mom telling me that she loved old cemeteries and I think that's probably why I like them now.

When my guy and I were at Yosemite a couple weeks ago, we were riding our bikes and came upon this cemetery! I've been to Yosemite a

Show and Tell Friday!

Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  This week I'm sharing my roses from my garden! They are blooming like crazy right now! These are my "Nancy Reagan" roses and they are a beautiful salmon color. They are one of the healthiest roses I've grown!  The leaves are dark green and lush and it blooms profusely!

My Weekend Getaway to Yosemite



Last weekend, my guy and I went to Yosemite! It was sort of a spur of the moment trip! We both took Friday off of work and headed up there! It's a little less than a 4 hour drive. 

I've spent a lot of time in Yosemite as a child. For many years my family would go up every Thanksgiving in our motorhome.  I remember that almost every year we would be there for the first snowfall! As a California

Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!!!  I hope everyone had a great week!  I'm a little late getting this post up tonight!  I came home to take photos and my camera battery was dead.

This week I'm sharing some of my fall decor!

Show and Tell Friday!


Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  Wow, time is flying!  I've been trying to find time to get these photos from the Goat Hill Fair up for awhile now!  It's been almost 2 weeks since I took these! 

As you can see, there where lots of beautiful things there! I would have loved to spend more time looking around but it was hot and I was wearing a black top polyester type top...pair that with hot

Show and Tell Friday!



I've shared my heart-shaped rock collection here before but I recently found some new ones so thought I would share those today!  I found all these on my Saturday morning hikes.  For those that don't know, I hike about 10 miles every Saturday morning.  The morning I found the two above I also found a huge one...about the size of a dinner plate!  I actually thought about throwing it in my
