Christmas in Tampa!

Rec Hall

Our Tree



The decorating has begun at our Happy Traveler's RV Park! The recreation hall, the neighbors and even our deck have the Christmas spirit. I sat by Mom while she decorated - and gave advice when needed :)

The Snowbirds Have Arrived!



My favorite neighbors are back in Tampa for the winter - Chablis (shown here) and Bebe are toy poodles that live across the way from me. I love to visit Chablis to see if I can steal his treats!

I love to ride on our golf cart to bark hello to everyone!

Halloween Fun!





Some of my friends have fun Halloween decorations! The Clearwater, FL home above has interesting visitors...that's a spaceship and a drunk alien!

While below, these unique decorations don't seem to bother the house cats! Check the dog skeleton on the lap!

September Road Trip!

Amicalola Falls State Park, GA


I'm so excited!

Plans are being made for our September road trip to the lovely states of Georgia, Tennessee and Mississippi. Our first stop will be the Decatur Book Festival in Georgia on Sunday, Sept. 1st. It's the eighth annual AJC Decatur Book Festival with over three hundred best-selling authors and a vibrant street fair.

The next day, we'll stop at the Amicalola Falls State Park in Georgia. "At 729 feet, Amicalola Falls is the tallest cascading waterfall in the Southeast," says the website. Wow!  And I'll be allowed to walk the trails, too, on a leash of course.

Then, we'll travel to visit national and state parks in Tennessee and Mississippi on our way to Memphis, where we'll visit the patients at St. Jude's Childrens Hospital. Then a visit to Nashville!

More details will be posted soon!

Plan Your Summer Vacation to a National Park!



 Bryce Canyon in Utah was amazing!


Are you planning your summer vacation? National parks are loads of fun to visit. This site lists the states and U.S. Territories that have national parks: http://www.nps.gov/index.htm  Each listing gives pet regulations, fun things to do and other topics.

From the site:
The National Park Service was created by an Act signed by President Woodrow Wilson on August 25, 1916. Yellowstone National Park was established by an Act signed by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872, as the nation's first national park.

Visitors can obtain park passes by visiting their nearest park site. Most sites have passes available, however it is recommended to call a park prior to your visit. Learn more about the variety of park passes at: America the Beautiful - National Parks and Federal Recreation Lands Pass.



At Arches National Park in Utah.

Dog Friends from Pomona Horse Expo in California!

Canine performers at the Pomona Horse Expo included these cattle dogs showing off their excellent herding skills. The left one is a Border Collie, and the other two are Australian Kelpie dogs. They were very impressive to watch and meet!


 These two dogs stopped by the Book Corral to discuss the author's books.

This young reader and rider brought his furry friend and bought a Beloved Horses book!

What is that white stuff?



On our way to California, we made a stop in New Mexico. On January 30, 2013 we stopped for gas and I checked out the white stuff on the ground. Never seen it before but it was cold and wet. Brrr! I jumped right back into the van!


It is very pretty but I think I'll stick with sunny, warm Florida!

California Here I Come!



Hey, Chablis. Did you hear the news? We're returning to California in a couple weeks - and it won't be 100 degrees this time!

We leave January 26th and will travel the southern route on I-10 and stay in the Pomona area, at La Quinta of course! My books will be displayed at the Book Corral during the Pomona Equine Expo at the Fairplex.

We'll do some site-seeing on the way home beginning in San Diego. Then, stop by and drive through National parks in Arizona and New Mexico.

Woo Hoo! This should be fun!
