The Man We Bought Bear From Passed Away…..

RaymondAllenReid

Ray has been training dogs professionally for over 35 years! He made a perfect match in Bear for us! I am saddened to hear he has passed away.

Many condolences to his family and I hope his kids keep the business going for many many more years to come!

Sometimes It’s Hard to Bounce Back……

This bug we got was nasty and it just doesn’t want to let go! I am tired of coughing trying to get my lungs to clear! Tuesday I see my asthma doctor and I am hoping she puts me on their nebulizer for a while to help clear my lungs out! Need some relief! tee hee

David P. Thompson Elk Fountain

I have always loved looking at this Elk fountain downtown! It is on SW Main st between 3rd and 4th avenues. It was donated by former Portland Mayor David P. Thompson in 1900 and it commemorates the elk that once lived in the area.

Idaho Cemetery

My niece was nice and drove me by this cemetery so I could take photos. This is a huge head stone and it’s beautiful! I am not sure of the purpose of the tall skinny structure in the first picture but it has great charm for the cemetery!

Have a splendid Wednesday!

There is a Lot to Be Said About Being Aware of Your Surroundings!

IMG_0473

I carpool with my friends to work, I parked in my usual spot to wait for them, and this man was walking with his dog and he came up to my car window. I held my hand up and shook my head no that I would not open my window.

He walked to the front of my car and took a picture of me in my car. When my friend Kat pulled in he also took a picture of the front of her car. He then went into the parking structure taking photos of other parked cars.

I called 911 and reported it, he was really creepy and I felt violated by him taking the photo.

Too bad I didn’t have my German Shepherd with me at the time!
