So not sure if we are going to be able to get in the pool yet today. It cannot decide if it wants to rain and storm out. I m trying to get pictures of Torrie in the pool jumping and swimming for my scrapbook album. I have a few but I am trying to get one of her in the air as she jumps off the ladder but you know those darn digital cameras and the delay, WELL! I have some of her on the ladder and some when she splashes in the water but I cannot get her just before the big splash lol! She was very patient with me when I had her jumping in to see if I could capture the moment but just couldn’t make it happen. But I will keep trying and when I capture that moment you will see it for yourself right here LOL! Enjoy your day.  Read more... (158 words, 3 images, estimated 38 secs reading time)

So I love Summer. I don’t get alot done some days but I do enjoy the day. Me and Torrie love to get in the pool. She loves swimming and is like a fish in the water. She loves just jumping in and swimming in circles. It is just one of her favorite things. BUT then it’s my favorite too. There is nothing like a lazy Summer day in the pool right? Well your Summer.

Til next time, Donna

Who knew the cost of gas would triple in eight years? Wyoming pays the least for gas and California pays the most – but the cost of gas is going up all around the country. Among the reasons given for this are unstable world conditions, increased demand because China and India are becoming industrialized, OPEC cutting production, strict U.S. emission standards, increasing refinery costs, oil company mergers and taxes added to the cost of gas for road maintenance. Although we need to be oil-free and have a safe source of energy, less than $1.13 per person per year is spent on solar, wind and ethanol research – combined. If government doesn’t take action soon, I’ll be forced to use a four-letter word – walk.  Read more... (422 words, 1 image, estimated 1:41 mins reading time)
