Living in the Philadelphia suburbs

Well, thank you so much to my Keller Williams and Active Rain buddy Mark Hall for throwing passing the Friendship Ball at to me! It's really quite squishy and spongy, so it didn't hurt much. I adored Mark's description of The Friendship Ball being like a beach ball at a concert, being either voll...

It rained off and on all day in Bonita Springs, Florida. But in the end, the skies in Florida never disappoint me. Just in time for some amazing clouds, the rain gives up and the big black storm clouds start to dissipate and move off. It literally looks like a present being unwrapped. You can see...

Personally, this never gets boring for me. I'm guessing that there are a lot of people out there that don't mind seeing my same old...same old sunset and cloud pictures. Am I right? Last night was a combination of sun, black clouds, white clouds and rain all at the same time. It was amazing. I di...

I was doing some cleaning and I found pictures of St Maartin when my husband and I took our one and only trip outside the U.S. Wow... I need to clean more often. This was the trip of a lifetime. The island of St Maartin in the Caribbean is only 37 square miles with 37 beaches and divided into two...

I'm throwing out a question to Active Rain dog people. Does anyone have any idea what kind of dog my Gracie might be? We got her from a rescue group who told us she was saved from a puppy mill in Miami where she was a breeder. It was obvious when we brought her home that she had just had a litter...

Here a few cool pictures (at least I think so) from my trip up to and back from Ft Myers, Florida to Philadelphia, Pa. I just spent a few days in Southampton, Pa. A lovely suburb of Philadelphia. We took a direct flight up to Phila International and then the R2 train to Warminster station, then g...

So....this is what happens when I cook. Half of Bonita Springs Fire & Rescue comes to dinner and the whole neighborhood knows about it. What can say? I blame it on the electric stove. Darn things are just too hard to regulate. You need to know that I *can* cook. I just don't *like* to. So therefo...

I'm on a beach roll! Who can blame me. What can I say. It seems as though we can go for weeks or maybe months and not go the beautiful beaches that we are blessed with here in Bonita Springs, Fl. But lately, I just can't stay away. More is not enough. It seems as though we are experiencing the ca...

Well, it's a good thing that I have enjoyed our beautiful Bonita Springs sunsets lately. Looks like it may be time to pay the price for living in paradise. Hurricane Ike is on his way with his girlfriend Josephine close behind. Personally, I love storms and hurricanes... but I'm not stupid. They ...

Good evening! These pictures are pretty much the same view as another recent post that I did ... BUT ... I just had to share them tonight. Almost every single night, the sky looks like this and every night I am in awe and have to go take pictures. It looks like the sky is on fire and all the surr...
