Here’s wishing all my blog friends and followers all the best, and a very Happy New Year. This picture features my “pup” that I adopted last year. Due to my living alone status, many of my friends often suggested I get a dog or cat. I personally couldn’t take the risk of medical bills which […]

It’s so exciting to wake up to snow falling! After living most of my life in Southern California where the only snow fell in surrounding mountains, it’s so fun to look into my Kansas backyard and see white, fluffy stuff. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken somewhere on a back road as I made my way to Lindsborg, Kansas. I had eyes on me as I drove by! ~SueBee

I don’t know about you, but I was certainly taught not to sit on my plate while eating. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix shows a bit of fluff caught on the little lemon verbena herb plant I recently potted. The fluff, which is actually seed pods from the numerous cottonwood trees in the area, flies through the air here looking like snow flakes. It catches on everything and I’m sure must be quite annoying to […]

Yesterday’s spontaneous adventure involved a drive to Quivera National Wildlife Refuge in central Kansas, about forty miles west from home. While I sort through the pictures I took there, I thought I’d share this idyllic farm scene that caught my eye as I explored dirt roads on my return home. You have no idea how […]

Spring is in the air here in central Kansas… well, maybe it was a few days ago! Today was overcast, somewhat chilly and it rained a bit (not enough). We can do with more rain, no doubt. My vast front lawn has been greening up over the past few weeks. As I gazed out over […]

Today’s Foto Fix was taken on a very late afternoon walk at the nearby Dillon Nature Center. The weather was brisk, drizzly, brrrrrrr, and I loved every minute of it as I made a quick walk around this gorgeous little lake. ~SueBee

I happened to stop along the way while exploring the central California coast, somewhere near Pismo Beach, and captured this stunning sunset. That trip will be one for my memory books for awhile as I’m in the process of packing for a big move to the middle of the country, far away from any oceans! […]

Returning from a recent visit to the Central California coast area, I drove south on Highway 1 from Pismo Beach and through the quaint town of Guadalupe. While less than ten miles of farmland separates it from the busy 101 Freeway, Guadalupe feels a world away. There were several art installations I noticed as I […]

Today’s Foto Fix is a shot I captured while on the pier at Avila Beach on the central California coast. I took a few days vacation in that area to celebrate circling the sun another year, having hit the 68 mark. More pictures from my trip to come once I’ve gone through them. ~SueBee

This photo was taken from inside the car with Aranka and George during our recent Road Trip in Nevada, Utah and Arizona. We didn’t attempt to get a reservation for the shuttle bus as none of us felt like joining crowds of people in a confined space, so we took a drive on the main […]

Today’s Foto Fix was taken overlooking the Pacific Ocean somewhere south of Carlsbad, California. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix shows some very expensive homes optimistically clinging to the edge of land at Corona Del Mar in Southern California. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix is from April, 2014, when I took my mom to see the Flower Fields in Carlsbad, California. We had a wonderful time, surrounded by endless rows of color, scents of springtime in the air. ~SueBee

I spent the past week visiting my son and son-in-law in Kansas, my first time seeing them since they moved there a year ago, and my first time in Kansas. Being fully vaccinated now, I was finally able to get on an airplane. We had a really nice time together; it felt so normal! I […]

I took this picture with my iPhone a few days ago at Aliso Beach (yes, included in my parking pass) in south Orange County, California. It was quite a sight! ~SueBee

Today I have guest pictures from my friend of many decades, Aranka, who lives in Pahrump, Nevada. The first picture was taken out her breakfast room window, the other two as she and her husband, George, drove to Las Vegas. The pictures are beautiful, but also quite a stand-out when you factor in where they […]

Today’s Foto Fix was taken at the California Botanic Garden in Claremont during my recent visit, and features a pretty, heart-shaped cactus. ~SueBee

I made my annual journey to Newport Beach Peninsula this morning to write digits in the sand, and yes, to get wet, as a wave reminded me who’s boss of the beach. I found that completely appropriate, and it made me laugh! My new grandson was the bright spot of 2020; the rest of it […]
