Canon SX 50 HS Point & Shoot Camera…

A Canon SX 50 camera? What?! A point and shoot camera? That would soooo not be for me. That is what I was thinking a couple of weeks ago when I read about the SX 50 super zoom. Then I read some of the posts on the Stokes Birding Blog. The photo’s that Lillian took […]

Parmesan Crusted Chicken – so easy to make…

Parmesan Crusted Chicken Breast – only four ingredients to make delicious, juicy chicken!  My kind of recipe! I took a couple of chicken breasts out of the freezer the other night that I was going to grill.  Those that know me, know that grill is my favorite way to cook. Lately though, I’m trying to […]

A quiet Sunday in Beaufort, North Carolina

Beaufort, NC is a pretty little coastal town. Last Sunday, I took a drive to see what I could find to photograph. It was a beautiful, winter day with very little activity. In 2012, Beaufort was ranked as “America’s Coolest Small Town” by Budget Travel.  Beaufort has an interesting history. Blackbeard, the pirate, ran aground […]

What do you fear…

FDR said “the only thing to fear is fear itself”. Yeah right!!…tell THAT to someone that is afraid of something! Real or imagined–fear is fear! My life has been a series of ebbs and flows of fear. As a child, I was pretty much afraid of EVERYTHING. I had a less than stellar childhood and […]

Making a move after retirement…

Moving after retirement was something that I never thought we would do. I’d hear of folks moving south and thought “Why would they do that?”.  I pictured us living in the Maine woods as we grew older – watching the wildlife wandering through our backyard (or dooryard in Maine-ese). We pretty much were settled on […]

16th Annual Great Backyard Bird Count…February 15-18, 2013…

The annual Great Backyard Bird Count is already upon us and I forgot that I wanted to blog about it.  Well, it’s not too late. There are still two days left. I can’t believe that it slipped my mind. The Great Backyard Bird Count is fun, free, easy AND it helps the birds. Anyone can […]

Sweet & Sour Pork – easy to make & oh, so yummy…

I made Sweet & Sour Pork the other night. It was sooooo yummy! So what’s the big deal? For over 30 years, I have rotated the same meals and never used much imagination. We had pork chops, chicken, & steak–almost always cooked on the grill.  Then there was hamburgers, also cooked on the grill. I […]

Taming your Facebook News Feed…

News Feeds on Facebook can sometimes make you want to run for the hills. Seems like everyone has a cause these days–something they hate, something they love, something that’s cute…well, you get the picture. Some of these posts are enjoyable but sometimes, enough is enough! Turns out that last year Facebook made some changes to […]

Facebook Privacy Settings to help tame the beast…

Facebook is great for keeping in touch with friends and family. I was not one of the early adapters of Facebook but I found that when we started to travel more, it was the easiest way to keep up with our kids and friends back home. One message could let everyone know that all was […]

Senior moments…yep, I’m at the age…

Being a woman of a “certain” age, I can appreciate those jokes about “senior moments”.  Even when I wasn’t a senior, I was forever looking for my keys.  Actually, it got better as I got older because I learned to put them in the same place when I was done with them.  The cell phone […]
