I’m at a 2-day SHIINE conference, with a view of sunrise over the Missouri River in Oacoma, SD.

L to R— Lumi, Monte, and Sadie—they always make me feel better.

It’s a good to get away from the craziness for a short time—I took this picture on a night walk last evening in Costa Rica.

A perfect day to be outside, only the sound of breeze and birds, can almost forget the crazy world when I’m with my dog. 🐕

I love how the male (who’s a ways back in the tree) keeps watch while the female eats at my window feeder.

How wonderful to live only in the moment, with trust and no concerns for the future.

Just because I like cardinals! ❤️

Taken in Custer State Park in SD—turn up the volume to hear him “speak”.

This is Sadie, adopted from the Humane Society almost 10 years ago. This was taken a year ago when I temporarily needed the walker, which didn’t stop her from staying by my side. ❤️
