I started blogging close to 15 years ago and I have never written an article that was this important or difficult to write; first, a little back-story. Pictured above are my daughter Jess with her two Golden Retrievers, Heidi and Lauren. While most dog owners will tell you how important their dogs are to them; …
I have become aware that I have a lot of new readers, so I will have to stop presuming that you know anything about me. Well, I am a dog person. Naturally, there are cats that I can and have appreciated, but push comes to shove, dogs win every time. I have Buddy. Buddy is …
Long time readers know that I took up juicing about 18 months ago. When Tanya would come out I would offer a taste of the concoctions I made, but her reaction was along the lines of it was not terrible. She was not impressed. A few weeks after she moved in, someone mentioned the movie, …
These photos were taken on Monday, September 26, 2011. When I came in to London from Gatwick, my driver took the scenic route through town. Combined with the bus tour I went on Sunday, I was ready for some up close and personal time with the city. A friend had stayed an extra day so …

What a deceptive morning. I stepped out of my front door to determine what I should wear for my morning walk. As my front door faces due east, I was greeted with the warmth of a bright blue sky. I could feel there was a slight chill in the air, but nothing drastic. I opted …
The sun is out, but there are definitely a lot of rain clouds off in the distance. Reading my friend’s Facebook updates, it seems that rain has already hit many areas, just not here. That is another advantage of living by the beach, the weather is less extreme. My photo of the day for day …
I have to admit, I never gave much thought to what a difficult job Punxsutawney Phil has. February is a terrible month to try and see your own shadow. I live in Southern California and it has been a real chore to try and get my shadow every day. I can only imagine that the …
The mornings are a lot sunnier lately and as a result, they are a little warmer. Of course, this is not a guarantee since sunny skies mean no clouds to hold the heat in. Nothing a long sleeved shirt can’t take care of. My picture of the day for the 53rd day of Project365 is …
