Visit "My Gallery" (upper right of page) to see more of my photos from some of my trips around the world.

Some ask me what kind of camera I use so here is some information: I have a Minolta SLR but now use only my digital cameras:

I love my Fuji FinePix S602Zoom http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/FujiS602Z/

I also really like my small Canon PowerShot SD750 http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-cameras/canon-powershot-sd750-silver/4505-6501_7-32314640.html

Now I have a new 10x zoom Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3S http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-cameras/panasonic-lumix-dmc-tz3s/4505-6501_7-32332747.html

I would like a Canon PowerShot S5 IS http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-cameras/canon-powershot-s5-is/4505-6501_7-32441341.html

It may be summer... but here in British Columbia we're surrounded by smoke from the many fires burning throughout the province. We've health advisory warnings to stay inside or head to the mall. (Malls must love that!) Summer is flying by once again! We're expecting our first grandchild in just a few weeks so excitement is mounting.
I'm not on the hill as much as I'd like to be... and hope to post some new travel photos soon as we've just been to China, Korea, Japan and Russia then a cruise across the ocean and down the Alaskan coast.

It's a busy year of travel ahead with lots of quick trips to see our grandchild too!

CROWN JEWELS OF CANADA SOCIETY

Although I've been very active in the Red Hat Society for several years I have now gone in a new direction and am a proud member of the CROWN JEWELS OF CANADA SOCIETY. (http://canadianjewels.info

Unfortunately, as I paid for a lifetime membership on the Hill, I can't change my ID



Why wear a hat when you can wear Diamonds? Are they not a girl's best friend? (Men have dogs!)

I grew up in Ontario (Canada)and have traveled to every province and state and in total over 44 countries. I love both travel and photography - and dogs, cats & kids and friends!
I've lived in the 'burbs of New York City (Westchester); Vermont; Rhode Island, S-W Florida & Arizona, as well as Toronto and western Canada...home of the Rocky Mountains and spectacular scenery and the upcoming 2010 Olympics!

I am "supposedly" retired but work pretty much full time with founding a new Canadian Social club for women annual convention planning.

For me - this says it all:

Wander-Thirst

ALL the credit for this masterpiece goes to Gerald Gould

Beyond the east the sunrise; Beyond the west the sea
And East and West the Wander-Thirst that will not let me be;
It works in me like madness to bid me say goodbye,
For the seas call, and the stars call, and oh! The call of the sky!

I know not where the white road runs, nor what the blue hills are,
But a man can have the sun for friend, and for his guide, a star;
And there’s no end to voyaging when once the voice is heard,
For the rivers call, and the road calls, and oh! The call of a bird!

Yonder the long horizon lies, and there by night and day
The old ships draw to home again, the young ships sail away
And come I may, but go I must, and if men ask you why,
You may put the blame on the stars and the sun,
And the white road and the sky.

YES - I HAVE BEEN TO ALL THE PLACES IN THE PHOTOS! I love to travel! Am off to China, Russia and Alaska soon and next year to S. America again and Antarctica.

Below are a few photos from a recent trip to Europe and our river cruise from Paris to Budapest.




Watching family and friends suffer through rough times... be it health-wise or financially.
We all want only the best for our loved ones.
I wish all of my friends good health and much happiness - always!

Nothing is more precious that family and friends!
