Excuse me, but do you have a carrot?😂😂😂. This b***o stuck his face right in the window of the truck….lol. Once he moved we were able to get out and pet them. We won’t feed them as we don’t want them to not be able to stay living in the wild. They do have watering zones for b***os in Arizona…..it helps keep them from coming into civilization, even tho they are really all over. When it does rain in Arizona the watering zones have like a tin roof that eventually goes towards a trough of sorts and the rain water fills up the troughs that are scattered around. On this particular day we also saw some grouse, roadrunners, and a few more b***os. Mira & Dakota both got to meet the b***os😁 ***os ***osofarizona ***osofhavasu ***os

Awesome day Rzr riding with a super group of friends. Saw an old fort & some dinosaur tracks. Chili dinner after everyone got cleaned up. I’ve never seen my husband with “red hair” before😂😂. So much red dirt & sand but wouldn’t trade it for anything! Love our RV’ing life and the friends we have made❤️.

Happy Heavenly Birthday KellBug😇. You are missed more than words can say. I can’t believe you’ve been gone almost 5 months. We’re trying to take care of your mom but she misses you dreadfully. We know God is taking care of you and you can finally be happy and dance & skip around again on legs that are whole again and a body that is healed. Miss you so much Kelli 💔 ❤️❤️❤️❤️.

We have been getting a lot of hummingbirds here at Birdland Bay RV Resort in Thompson Falls, MT. We love hanging our window feeder up but we always check first as we don’t want to draw bears into the RV Park. The first 2 are male Rufous Hummers, the next one is an Osprey (we had no idea he had a fish until we saw the pic), the next 2 are male Black Chinned Hummers (their purple gorget is super bright purple but sometimes looks black), then we have the female Black Chinned Hummer and finally we think this is a juvenile Black Chinned Hummer. My husband is getting to be a pretty good “bird photographer” and catching them in flight. He has so much patience sitting at the kitchen table waiting for that perfect shot. I hope you enjoy his work!

We call this “The many faces of Mira”😂😂😂. Our Brussels Griffon has so much expression in her face and her tongue can’t control itself! The first picture is her waiting for me to come home. My husband said when I am gone, this is where she pretty much stays during the day. Other than that, she thinks I am her hooman bed.

We left Sequim, WA yesterday and took a ferry from Port Townsend to Fidalgo Island. From Fidalgo Island we had a short drive to get to the Swinomish Casino & RV Park in Anacortes, WA. Unfortunately our GPS system (approximately named Lulu) decided to take us on a detour. We knew we were in trouble when we saw the street sign that said “Turn And Be Damned Rd”. Yes, it was as bad as it sounded, maybe even worse. Dually trucks pulling a 42’ 5th wheel were not meant to be where we were. It was the worst predicament we have ever been in but we managed to get ourselves out…..very slowly and very carefully. Anacortes, WA is on the Swinomish Channel with views of the Cascade Mountains and Mount Baker. It is breathtakingly beautiful here. We have 10 nights reserved here and we are anxious to explore the island but we will use a different GPS system, 😂😂.

Poppies grow wild on the side of the roads. Crescent Lake between Port Angeles, WA & Forks, WA. Someone built a fort on La Push Beach….could it be a vampire??

I told my husband when we were planning on going to Washington that I had this inner geek thing about wanting to go to Forks & La Push Beach. He bought me the books and he actually went to every movie with me! It was a little bit of a drive but he graciously drove it. He asked me which rock Bella jumped off….lol. The scenery on the way to Forks was absolutely amazing (pics to follow). I hope there are other Twilight fans out there!

Historic Astoria, OR. We have been in Ilwaco, WA which is right across the bridge from Astoria, OR. I don’t think I have ever been in a bridge that has a speed limit of 55 and one that you can pass on. Quite a beautiful sight from this bridge. “The Comumn” in downtown Astoria….look at the detail on this 145’ tall structure. It has 164 steps on the inside that you can use to get to the top. Nope, didn’t go up….some heights freak me out. More pics coming soon.

Sorry I haven’t posted since my sister left Utah. It has been crazy since she left. Rain has been pretty relentless which is not normal Utah weather for this time of year. We have managed to get to a few activities these past couple of weeks tho. The first thing we went to was Vintage Days of Southern Utah. Mira was allowed in but she wanted to be carried the whole time. I found a cute little bag that was perfect for her to hang out in. The crown was just a prop showing how much of a princess she was. The next pictures are from Gunloch State Park. All of the rain that we have been getting has turned Gunloch into raging waters that only happen about once every 10-20 years. Guess we were at the right place at the right time! We’re going to be leaving St George, Utah on April 10th so we are hoping the weather cooperates and we can get a few more hikes in.

Valley of Fire State Park in Overton, Nevada is a park that is created by deep red sandstone formations and has so many petroglyphs it is amazing. We’ve seen other petroglyphs but never this many in one area. We are going to try to research the figures to see if we can find out what some of them mean. These petroglyphs are over 4000 years old!

Handmade doll clothes to fit AG dolls

I made my great nieces (yes they are great but they are also great, as in, they are my nieces little girls) about 30+ doll outfits (to fit American girl dolls) and took them down to Cincinnati at Easter time. Needless to say they were more than thrilled with everything, My oldest nephew surprisingly started checking out all of the outfits, and said, “Aunt Suze, you need to sell these; they are awesome.” I didn’t give it a lot of thought, came home to Northern Michigan from Cincinnati and what did I do? I started making more doll clothes and thought “who am I going to give all of these to?” So that’s when I sat down with my husband and discussed the idea of opening up an Etsy shop. After all, we took early retirement and moved up to our lake house in order to enjoy the quiet life. But I found out I wasn’t ready for full retirement and about 9 months later I took a part-time job with an upscale clothing shop in the town where we live. I love my little part-time job, but I have a passion for sewing. I decided to open SuzansLakesideStitch (name derived from sitting at my sewing machine and looking out at the lake) to fulfill that passion. But…it is difficult to work 3-4 days a week at the clothing shop and only have 3-4 days to do my sewing. Once SuzansLakesideStitch takes off, I will probably commit to my sewing full-time. I know it is difficult to get someone to trust a new shop/individual that is making and selling what a gazillion other people are selling. I’m old school though: an honest day’s pay for an honest day’s work. Things are not given to you, you need to earn them. Hard work, dedication and honesty are the only policy I know to live by.

Please note: I am not endorsed by any doll companies. My creations are strictly my own, either derived from a pattern or from my own design. I do use a doll in order to "model" the clothes I make, as I make them specifically for this size doll.
