Cowans Gap State Park

Our first camping trip took us to Cowans Gap.  It was a great trip.  The grandkids had fun and so did the adults.  I am not sure if the kids wore out the parents or if it was the other way around.  While the parents were busy with the kids, Grandpa and Oma, had a nice relaxing time walking around the lake, reading, and take photos.

We headed out as soon as the girls got home from school.  They had Friday and Monday off, so we had a nice long weekend.

Staying Busy During Covid-19

David and I are still staying home most of the time.  We figure there is no use taking chances with Covid-19, so we have been just staying busy at home.  Besides taking care of our granddaughters a couple days a week we have been working on crafts, trying new recipes and working in the yard.  We don’t go out to eat but we do go over to the neighbors on Fridays and sit in their carport.  We order out and our men go pick it up.  That is the one night a week I don’t cook.  Talking about cooking here are a couple photos of something I cooked.

These are Keto friendly recipes.  The first one is an almond flour dinner roll.  They were good.  I also made fried chicken in my Air Fryer.  The coating is ground pork rinds.  It turned out great. Continue reading “Staying Busy During Covid-19”

Rocky Ridge County Park

We decided to go hike one of the many trails at Rocky Ridge County Park not far from where our kids live.  This was the girls’ first hike. Daddy brought their wagon for if they got tired.

First thing they saw really interesting was some Daddy Long Legs on a post.  They love itsy bitsy.

LightBox

I had been wanting to try doing some photography with a lightbox. I got one back in at the end of February for my birthday. The last few days I keep telling myself to set it up. I finally did today.

Here are some photos I took with just things I found around the house.

Green Short Shorts

There has been quite the discussion about David’s green short shorts.  I don’t think he should wear them because he has such long, skinny, white legs.  He doesn’t see a problem with them.  I do have to say that he put them on before he got into bed and I was already in bed.  He brought me the camera and as he is standing in front of our mirrored doors on our closet I am getting ready to take the picture.  He says, “Honey, you know when you take this picture you will be in the background naked.”  “Oh, shit!” I said as I looked in the mirror and see my nakedness.  I made him move then because I didn’t want to scare everyone. Some friends said we should have a vote.  I am going to post two photos with him in his shorts and I want all of you to vote yes or no.  Then we can see if he gets to take them.  You have to do this fast because the suitcases are closing tomorrow.

Thanks for the help!
