Mom has arrived:)

Hi all, Mom has once again arrived down here in Bonita Springs FL. Just taking it easy for the first week, with BBQ's and lots of quiet music and reading and of course sunshine........For Martin and I, it's baseball, which we will have a hotdog and beer for lunch today at the field, for me singing and working on the stage design again for the Spring show. I've also began a new endeavor with jewelery made from a nut from the Amazon. I met this dynamic couple 3 years ago at our Flea market, we "hit it off", he is also a french horn player in the symphony....up my jazz alley:), she is from Japan, a designer and has started opening up THAT market. I plan to bring this jewelery to the summer market at home, and we will be doing the One of a Kind show this Fall...........very excited!!
Well, I will keep you posted again this Spring with our adventures and outings...........Be well!

Days with friends and family.....

Hey everyone, here are a couple of days last week, one at the beach with Martin's sis and bro-in-law, Karol and Bert, and the other with Martin's family friends Elke and Hardy. They brought us to The Fisherman's Village in Punta Gorda after lunch........very nice!!

Fun in the Sun!

Love the birds:)

A new season of baseball 2012!

Well, a new bthing likeaseball season in Citrus Park begins. The group I sing with ALWAYS opens with both of the anthems. The aroma of the hotdogs cooking makes my mouth water.....MMmmm!!!! Nothing like a dog in the open air, watching a baseball game.
The sunset was from this AM (0700)......it's now raining:)
Hope all are well, and that 2012 has been treating you gently so far.......:):)

Chester (as his new and improved self)

 Here is Chester just after returning home from the vets. We decided that today was a good day to remove the splint and just see how he/we will fare without. The collar is to be on for 1 week, to let the skin heal fully and let fur grow without him being able to lick.......Yeah!! Right!!........Wish us luck!!!!Here are some of the splint colours during this 2 1/2 month ordeal....We hope all is well now and we can move forward, with Chester as his new self :)
