Description

I own no land, instead I have wheelestate. I’ve been a full time RVer since 1997. Working summers as a Park Ranger takes me to many beautiful places and playing during the winter takes me to many more. This blog is simply the story of my life's adventures.

12 for 10 Auction for Oral Cancer Awareness

I have friends that are survivors of oral cancer. My dear sweet life mentor Darlene is a survivor. Friend, co-worker and fellow blogger FabGrandma’s husband is also a survivor, 10 years in fact. And to celebrate this she is running an auction to raise awareness of oral cancer with the money donated to The Oral Cancer Foundation.

She’s back

01 Doe in yard Yarnell AZ by Mike (1024x768)

After yesterday’s bird seed feed by a local Mule deer doe the word must be out about good eats.

But Mike raised the feeders a little out of reach.
