to collect or not?




I have a fascination with globes, maybe it relates to my fascination with world travel. I have been thinking of starting a globe collection. I came across this picture and it pretty much seals the deal. I am officially starting a globe collection.

The end of summer




Living in south florida means that summer doesn't completely end but those long days at the beach with memorable sunsets will become shorter and shorter.

My best beach buds




The visits are few and far between but we can still pick up exactly where we left off. Cn is my beach soul mate. A bottle of wine, a beach chair and a good book is all we need. Greg is a very close second. He loves the beach but has his limits.

I am going to miss her.

gotta love a rainbow





How can you not love rainbows. Who can look at a rainbow and not smile?

happy friday





live the questions now. Perhaps then someday far into the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.

Last Weekend





We had a good excuse to go out last weekend to overeat and drink too much.
Maureen a very dear friend of Jen was in town last week with her boyfriend sydney. They were on a two week long vacation from Holland/The Netherlands. I very much enjoy seeing Maureen when she is in town. Her and Sydney are very good people and we hope to see them again
