Thinking carefully about the plan of attack…

Chewy time!

At night about an hour after dinner, Charlie gets 1/2 of a VeggieDent (cleans teeth). It’s the highlight of his day. Once we give it to him, he runs off with it. Then stares at it… no doubt considering the best way to “take this chewy down”. A minute or two later he’ll have it flying all over the living room, tossing it around, then he goes in for the kill (he eats his chewy, truly nothing gruesome going on, ha ha).

The life of Charlie! ❤️

Sit and dream…

Sit and dream...

Is there anything better than sitting and watching the water? In the cooler weather just watching the current flow, and the few fishermen out and about is a treat, but in the summer… whoa! Boats, people, people floating on rafts. Sailboats, race boats, big boats, little boats – it’s more entertaining than sitting inside in front of the TV! Don’t these two chairs look inviting?

Flashback: Island Inn Monhegan – Lunch in the Dining Room…

Fish Tacos - Island Inn Monhegan

Posting a few *Flashback* photos of lunch at the Island Inn dining room from 2015. I can tell you that each and every meal at the inn was a treat. The fish tacos were outstanding! And the iced tea, ahhhh… the iced tea is fabulous!

Island Inn Monhegan Lobster Roll

And… the Maine lobster roll was so extremely fresh, I believe it just crawled off the boat! Not full of mayo like many Lobster Rolls. Just delicious!

I’m not sure of this year’s menu, but whatever they come up with you know it will be good! In past years we have had lunch at the Barnacle, by the wharf. That’s always fun, you meet some interesting people that way! They used to have sandwiches in a refrigerated case, wonderful sandwiches, turkey, etc., then they served condiments on the side, which is nice if you prefer plain, etc. The refrigerated sandwiches are perfect if you’re not a fan of grilled sandwiches. Always something to look forward to (like breakfast and dinner, hee hee)!

Monhegan, Maine

Ahhh, Monhegan Island, Maine. Gorgeous. Stunning. Simple beauty everywhere you look. Nighttime skies that cannot be matched. Morning sunrises that will make you open your eye, grab your camera and dash down three flights of stairs in your PJ’s… this place is Heaven.

Posting a photo each day for the next few weeks – time for me to have a break. Back to normal posting 5/16!

Charlie (Jack Russell Terrier) Before (the hair) and After

Charlie - Before

When Charlie came into our lives he didn’t have “big” hair. They said it would get fuzzy in time, boy were they ever right! Look at the difference!

Charlie After

When this dog gets a bath you see how he’s not so big, but with all this hair he sure looks big! I wish I had his curls, ha ha. It’s fun looking back through old photos.

Enjoy your Sunday and I’ll catch you back here tomorrow!

A perfect way to enjoy the day!

Pretty as a picture!

Charlie and I headed out for a quick walk a few weeks ago and came upon this in a neighbor’s yard. So inviting, the two chairs posed for conversation by whoever happened upon them. The azaleas blooming wildly in the background and this wonderful morning sun. Just beautiful! The leaves are falling at an alarming rate (as you can see), but it all adds to the beauty of the scene.

Take some time to enjoy the day! Catch you back here tomorrow!

Charleston Photo – wish it had sound!

Party in the tree!

I was taking Charlie for a walk around the block the other day and we heard a lot of wild noise. I looked up to the sky to see these birds. I wish this photo had sound because I thought there were many more of them, ha… very vocal.

The blue sky, with the bright green from the budding trees…Wow! What a beautiful Spring we have here in Charleston. It does start a little early, but hey, it’s beautiful, get out and take advantage of it!

Charleston Photo – One of My Favorite Entrances!

Charleston, SC

Since many of you are away visiting friends or family, I will be posting photos this week – enjoy!

Just look at these details. The ornate gate, the beautiful marble tiles, the intricate door, the wonderful textures of the house – that fantastic light fixture and the softness of the greenery.

Absolute perfection! Look above the door. Pretty cool, huh?

Catch you back here tomorrow!
