30 Minutes in the Life: June 2016

30 Minutes in the Life, June 2016 is due to go live in a couple of weeks and I was at a loss to where to go.  Boca Raton, is not like a big city.  There may be a few high building but honestly it is not like Seattle or Denver.  Like the rest of Florida it is pretty flat.  I decided to head on…

30 Minutes in the Life: May 2016

For the past number of years I have attended a 1 day seminar at this location and I have always been impressed with the lines in the conference room section of this campus.  The campus belongs to one of the large churches in South Florida. Since our vacation in Seattle, I have found myself drawn to black and white images, whether it is street,…

30 Minutes in the Life: April 2016

So apparently I must live under a rock.  I have lived in this area for 15 years and have never heard of this event, or better yet, been to it.  So when a friend asked me whether I would like to go to the Delray Affair, I was a litte confused as to what it was. Much to my surprise it was far bigger…

30 Minutes in the Life: March 2016

As most of you know my brother and his family live in South Africa, so we do not get to see them too often.  However, for the last few years my brother has come to the US for a conference.  This year when he said he was going to be in Seattle I was a little unsure whether we would be able to meet…

30 Minutes in the Life: February 2016

It’s that time of year again, when the weather is cool and I am ready for something different.  I am sure by now some of you have learned a few of my likes, but for all the new ladies, here I go.  Time travel!  If I could time travel, I would go back to the days of knight wielding swords, vikings in battle and…

30 minutes in the Life: January 2016

Hard to believe another year has gone by.  Our last date for posing was December 28, and so on December 31, 2015, I got up really early and headed down to the beach to watch the sun rise on the last day of the year.  I was glad to see the end of it to be honest.  It was a tough year all round,…

30 Minutes in the Life: Festive 5

This time of the year gets really hectic and a unanimous decision was made to do a Festive 5 this month.  I am good with that.  When we first moved to the USA, I quickly realized that Christmas as it was, was going to change.  There was no family anymore besides the 4 of us.  I used to love having all the family over…

30 Minutes in the Life: November 2015

It’s hard to believe that 2015 is almost over.  I am not sure where it has gone.  The year has been full of events, some good, some not so good.  2014 ended on a not so good bang.  4 days before I was due to have foot surgery, Amy had a challenging accident, knocking out 3 teeth and fracturing her upper jaw.  That set…

30 Minutes in the Life: October 2015

Recently as the weather has started to cool, I have noticed that the local shopping center has begun organizing music in the small pavilion on it’s property.  They put out a number of chairs on the grass and it appears that the music starts around 6pm.  The local restaurants around this area have happy hour – every day. Now there are days that I…

30 Minutes in the life: Off to the beach we go…..

Summer in South Florida is hot.  I mean really hot.  Sticky, humid, sweaty kind of hot.  Fortunately I grew up with that kind of weather in Durban, South Africa.  We are beach people.  We love the ocean.  We love to be able to do things that involve water.  I love the smell of coconut oil and to be able to rest and read. Every…
