NOT gone yet....taking the "last break".....

It is now 11:30AM here. About ready to jump in the shower---load up the car and then will stop at my daughter's on the way and drop off some food and fruit that I have extra and then will scoot from there. If there are no major tie-ups, it is a 3 hr. trip. ADIOS!!!!!

Thank you ALL for the best wishes for my trip! I so appreciate it!

Love anf hugs, Gita

Had to show you this....

In 2006, when we were all in Alaska, my cousin and her husband were there as well. You know from my pictures and stories that there is a beautiful beach at Homer. It is called "Bishop's Beach". The whole beach is covered in all sizes and shapes of smooth rocks. I picked up a bunch of them and one was destined for my cousin who was there as a memento. Never got it done for Christmas, 2006, so--now that I can carry it over there and not have to mail a heavy rock, I will.

On it I painted the two of them on the beach and my sister's dog. The background turned out really nice---had a lot of trouble with the man. Unfortunately, he does not look like himself at all......I am sure we will all have a chuckle about that.

So--here is the rock. behind it is the iron, folding stand you can display it on.
