Location: Timberline Campground
A little while ago, a good friend of mine - Becky of Willow Avenue Pottery - told me that I need to write more about me and not just about the photography I do professionally. She was right... how boring is it that all you folks get to read is me talking about the work I do but hardly ever letting you know who I am. :)
So here goes... a blog post about me and what I've been up to lately.
My family and I *LOVE* to go camping. This past weekend was one of the few empty weekends I have of the Spring through Fall seasons, so we did some camping at Timberline Campground this weekend with friends! It was a PeRfEcT weekend for camping. The nights were cool and crisp. The days were sunny and lukewarm. Spring flowers were everywhere!
We ate Dave's famous chili, friends came just for a visit (and brought some very needed firewood - thank you!) We stayed up until 2:30 AM by the fire with our friends, the Seidl family.
We had such a good time!
Here are some photos from the weekend:
Puppies sleeping in the camper Saturday morning...
Otis...
Gracie... she was my "fire starter" on Saturday morning...
Dave on his laptop (there was wireless internet at the campsite). He's looking up cool stuff for the camper.
The dogs hanging with Hannah...
Mary and I took Otis on a nature walk...
We heard something moving under this fallen tree...
Can you see what was staring at us from under the log?
Spring flowers were everywhere!
Even the bees were out!
We did a lot of hanging by the fire...
This coming weekend I have a wedding and two portrait sessions in St. Louis. Next week - if the weather hold out - I am going "trucking" for a day with Becky. :) That will be blogged as well. YEAH! I can't wait for that adventure!
Thanks all! I hope you enjoyed your weekend as much as I enjoyed mine!
Be back soon!
Holy cats Jill, a racoon!!! Love your dogs :) And those were some awesome looking mugs at the campsite there...
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you did a 'personal' blog post. Now we know all about you... well, some about you. :)
ReplyDeleteI see the critter! Ahh... nature.
Trucking will be fun. I always like having riders.. it makes it even more fun! :)
P.S. I love your funny little 14 year old dog. It reminds me of a gremlin, you know.. the nice one. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah! I have to be honest - seeing a raccoon at 11:30 in the morning ... well it kinda freaked me out. I mean, what the heck is the raccoon doing out during the day??!! My thoughts were either (1) it's got some babies under that log or (2) it has rabies. I blocked out option 2.
ReplyDeleteYeah Trucking! :) Heehee!
LOL... yes, Dave sometimes calls her his little Magwai. :) Sometimes she makes noises like them. She's a funny little doggie.
