Scenic Sunday – Fall on the North Rim

Lost in memories of the golden aspen.

Filling hillsides with color in a burn from a decade ago.

Rain brings new life.

1 Year Blogaversary

One year old
I made it a year. Never thought I’d share so much of my life with the cyberworld.

My office view from Point Imperial
It started at Grand Canyon National Park with my first tentative post and changed the way I take photos forever.

Thanks to FabGrandma who introduced me to the world of blog, I now spend way too much time online, especially when on dialup, filling my need for an audience. I’m now following a dream of writing; maybe someday I’ll get paid for it but not by advertisements. Thanks Karen! ;-)

I’ve showed you where I live in my old RV both at the canyon...

...and Yarnell.

Didn’t know I had so much to say (that’s a lie). But then I did share quite a bit of my history. Dragging you around the country where I’ve lived and traveled over the past 15 years on the ever awesome My World Tuesday meme.

You met my long time travel companion Carson and consoled me at the end of his life’s journey.

I’ve introduced you to some of my dearest friends and family.

The best part about blogging is all the fantastic people I’ve met from around the world. You can see the constantly growing list of blogs I follow on the side bar. I learn so much from each of you. Thank you my friends.

Joshua Tree and Salton Sea
I plan to keep on blogging, at least for the next six winter months which are all I can plan at once. I hope to share with you as I explore more of the area around Yarnell, see my step-son in San Diego with side trips to Joshua Tree NP, the Salton Sea and Anza-Borrego Desert, a quick trip to south Texas where my parents live, and best of all, South Africa where I’ll actually get to meet my first fellow blogger Joan, the Bug Lady, of SAPhotographs. I'd really like to meet you all.

I AM addicted to Blog!

PS: Yesterday I was given an award by Alan at Yogi's Den. So I'll be passing it along.

Oh Deer, the library's here, time to browse

Flagstaff Library Bookmobile visits the North Rim once a month from June thru September. It’s only here for about an hour and can get quite busy. Sure is an appreciated service, especially when many towns are closing libraries.

Being in the middle of nowhere can mean a lot of time for reading for some. (see Kaibab squirrely Park Ranger) Or in my case spending way too much time online.

I always check out at least 6 books, plus 3-4 DVDs and sometimes I even watch one.
