Emma, A Real Love Story....


This is a very beautiful story about one caring individuals love of life and her efforts to maintain it for one very special little "Chi Chi" who has inspired love in so many and restored faith in mankind and reaffirmed the power of love. If you haven't heard the story of Emma yet, you should, it'll do your heart good so I'm going to put up a link that will take you to the rest of her links: http://www.dogster.com/dogs/658660
This tiny little bundle of love also proves that old saying that it's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog and this little girl is a giant. I want to make it a point to mention the lady who adopted her only a few hours into her life, Dena. She has to be an amazing person to do all she's done to give Emma a chance at life. Her value of life, her ability to love and nurture and her energy are to be respected and admired by all. Hopefully if all goes well for Emma, Dena shall be rewarded with mini puppy kisses for many years to come and an abundance of love and companionship as the adopted mom of "Emma". Emma still needs more medical attention and a couple of surgeries while two dogtors have donated their treatment there are still expenses so if you can help out please do and keep the love story going, it'll do your heart good!

Artist Julian Beever....








My sister from the Chicago area sent me an email with some of Julian Beever works in it! This guy is a truly remarkable artist in my opinion, his works are fantastic 3-D murals some of which are just breath taking in quality and detail.

I hope to put more of his art work up on this blog for your as well as my enjoyment. I have seen many who call themselves artist who are merely market manipulator's but it is my opinion that Julian Beever is an artist in the truest since of the word and I hope you enjoy his works as much as I do. Definitely something beautiful to behold!

Blue is Beautiful








Today I have a collage of one of my most favorite wild flowers!
This flower always represents summer time to me, they bloom later during the summer months and I remember seeing thousands of them in full bloom along the road sides of the California foothills. For most of my childhood my parents were very poor and one of the ways we would get out for a day of fun in the sun is my dad would take us on a ride (gasoline was more reasonable then) up into the foothills or the Sierras and we would spend the day, fishing, hiking and picnicing. One of the things I loved to do was see how many different kinds of wild flowers I could find. And that's it for today don't forget October is national breast cancer awareness month........

October-A Cure For Breast Cancer Would Be A Beautiful Thing!



This is to remind everyone that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month! Wear your pink!
If you've got breasts and you luv'em then rub'em and that goes for some men too who are also at risk for this horrible disease! Help raise money for research in the quest for the cure by participating in any of the many events that will happen this month in an effort to educate everyone on this terrible disease. Remember pink is pretty, you wearing it is beautiful! Have a wonderful week everyone!

Yosemite Bobcats


I was talking to a friend this morning and she and her boyfriend had just come back from a trip to Yosemite Park which is just a few miles south of here. I have spent so much time in that park
we used to go there every weekend, it is so beautiful and I think my favorite time is in the off tourist season's of fall and winter and early spring. A few weeks after the tourist season has slowed down the wildlife relaxes and I have spent many happy hours just sitting and watching a bobcat play like a kitten in a gorgeous meadow. And let me tell you to see these awesome cats playfully enjoying life in the wild as they are meant to be is truly an amazing and beautiful thing.
They are not tame but if your quiet and don't get to close you can watch and enjoy their antic's and you'd think you were just watching kittens at play, these are magnificent cats and should never be hunted for sport.
