• So this is goodbye

  February 5, 2014

  Even though I didn't come here a lot, I'm still feeling sad about saying goodbye here. I've met many wonderful, kind and caring people here. I couldn't even remember my name here until it popped in my head while I was reading. I want to thank Mayonessa for the email about OD shutting down. All&he...

• Feeling Sentimental (The House That Built Me)

  January 17, 2012

  I was listening to a song my friend Casilda put up and I decided I'd put one up that I liked. I don't like a lot of country but this song really touched me. I've included a pic of me as a kid with my dog Beauty. My brother dug up the pic for me.…

  No Dasher right now but I'll be putting up some of him soon. I have tons I want to post but they're scattered everywhere and I need to find them, resize, upload, etc. It's very time consuming. So, I do hope you enjoy the ones I've chosen. The sunrise ones aren't my best but I…

• Early Morning Dasher

  July 14, 2008

  The sun yesterday morning looked so pretty coming through the woods that I decided to take Dasher and get some pics without his collar. I always have his squeaky tennis ball with me and he poses so well for it. I use it as a reward after a good pose. And he's cute because he…
