Some things are just interesting.

I took these pictures of our driveway lights. 

Catching up

How the inside of the light house looks, 182 steps!  And Emma ran all the way up, oh to have that energy again.

Ice Cream, it's whats for lunch.

Alice and Tim's beautiful back yard.

The light house from across the bay.

As we get closer to 'settling' in for a few weeks of no travel (for me anyway), I thought I'd catch up with a few pictures from our trips to Chicago and NY.  We didn't take many in Chicago as we took a lot and posted them all last year, but here are a few from our hotel.  The pictures in NY are the light house on Robert Moses Beach.  We went there as kids, but the light house was a far walk from the closest parking lot, now they have closer beaches and a nice board walk.  I sadly didn't take pictures of mom since they had a quarantee on her floor for a pneumonia outbreak, which she had, and I didn't want to carry my purse up to the floor and risk spreading anything.

FALL IN SPEARFISH CANYON

We continue to be amazed at the beauty of the places we have been privileged and blessed to live in. Nothing like a gorgeous fall day to take a drive on the Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway, located about 30 miles from our home in South Dakota. Words are hardly necessary to describe the pictures that follow.

Interesting wildlife we almost stepped on

This tree was upright when I shot the picture
