sharleenstuart30 Minutes in the Life: May 2019
Yes I know it says May, and it is now June, but truth is we delayed it one week so that we would all have a chance to enjoy the Memorial Day weekend. For me it was an awesome 11 days of vacation. 5 of those days were spending in the stinking hot sun down in the Florida Keys. Phew, when shade is at…
Tell me a Story: May 2019
If you did not read my previous post we are in San Antonio for a few days. After visiting the Alamo, I had a list of places in the “town” area that I wanted to see. First on my list was St Fernando Cathedral. So we meandered through the town until we reached it. We passed canals and interesting buildings. We stumbled across a…
Tell me a Story: October 2018: Portland Part Two
I started off our Maine vacation with Tell me a Story and to be honest I have only reached day 2. Saturday and we were in Portland. If you did not read Portland Day 1 you can do so here. Portland is a busy harbor town and I wish we had more time to explore it. Our goal today was to go whale watching,…
30 Minutes in the Life: October 2018: Portland
For this month’s 30 Minutes I thought I would share some of the time we spent in Portland, Maine. Our drive from Wells Beach took about 40 minutes and we saw some great sights along the way. Driving up to Portland we had fog. I was not happy. We were heading to Portland to do some whale watching. Ugh – fog means no whale…
Maine Vacation: Wells Beach: Part 1

But first off…
Maine Vacation: Manchester by the Sea
If you recall last we were in Salem, Massachusetts. We left there after a couple of hours and headed to Manchester by the Sea. Why there? Well Richard talked about going on to Rockport, MA. Apparently his Tuna Reality Series operates out of Rockport. Well I watched the movie “Manchester by the Sea” last year and decided that since we were going to pass…
Artist Inspired: September 2016: Gold
It is so hard to believe that a month has past. I am still in the recovery process of foot surgery and am unable to go out and take photographs right now. The last time I blogged with Artist Inspired, the theme was blue and I shared image from our trip to Friday Harbor. This month the theme is gold and I decided to…
Seattle: Capital Hill
March in Seattle and we have now been here about 7 days. We have the evening and one more day to spend in the city and then we head out on the road. In the evening we will be walking up to Capital Hill to meet up with a friend. Not knowing where we were going we decided to spend the afternoon exploring Capital…
Tell me a story: June 2016
Tell me a Story is live and this month the quote is from Deepak Chopra: “To make the right choices in life, you have to get in touch with your soul. To do this, you need to experience solitude, which most people are afraid of, because in the silence you hear the truth and know the solutions” Solitude for me often comes when we…
