Today’s ornament incorporates the other camper ornament I was given last week. It started out red but had to change to Casita white! Then it had to become a big snow globe kind of ornament. I put her in a “brownie bites” acetate package from the grocery store and wrapped her edge in some of […]
Today’s mini flat board canvas ornament captures the full moon– since we are under a Super Moon just now. We love camping under a full moon because of the ease of extra light at the picnic table and the long subtle shadows that dapple the campground. My family and friends who work as physicians […]
I was going to share this when I wrote up our Casita Thanksgiving trip and meal but I’m getting the nudge to just put it out there now–hopefully the person(s) who need to see it, will. This year, so many of my friends are suffering the losses of people and pets and homes (due to […]
This little glass cloche and the little trees were brought from our old home (in case there weren’t any decorations here at all). I had a big collection of all kinds of miniature trees that used to decorate the dining room table and Christmas mantle. I sorted many for give-away when we sold the house […]
In the third grade, I learned to fold Origami cranes. The way life unfolds, there aren’t so many things we learn in grade school that we keep with us as useful tools throughout our lives.

2017, Where did you go?? Oh, I remember, we bought a new home half a country away. I gave away or sold well over half of our possessions. We moved the rest out to a home all torn up and trying to come back together on weekend trips and stolen weeks. We sold our beloved […]
In life, and camping, it’s all about the folks you meet along the way. During the last art show I participated in, I was displaying next to the woman who makes these wonderful clay flutes. Over the hours we shared stories of our dogs and lives and travels. We started talking about this blog and […]

The last two months have been a whirlwind of activity in the way our new home presented itself so quickly and the realization that that meant I had to sort and disperse 20 years of collections, materials and unrealized projects as well as work on home renovations in the new house, two states away. This […]
