    Florida

    15 Mayıs 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌙 81 °F

    Well, we're back in the USA for a bit. The first stop was to see my mom, sister, and her family. No pictures (AGAIN) 😕
    Just shots of FLL on the way into Miami.

  • Between the parks

    29 Mayıs 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F

    We had a gap day between USH and Disneyland, so we went to Hollywood and Santa Monica Beach.
    At the end of our day off, we checked into our hotel right across the street from the next park.

  • Disneyland 1

    30 Mayıs 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 64 °F

    We're going to Disneyland!!!
    We got up bright and early to arrive at the park when it opened. It was great being across the street. We were able to go home for lunch and dinner.
    And what a fun, exhausting day in the park.Okumaya devam et

  • Disneyland 2

    1 Haziran 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 75 °F

    It was a three day park pass. This was the third day. We spent it back at Disneyland. We finally got to do Tayana's Bayou Adventure. Formerly known as Splash Mountain, be sure to check out the look on Lyra's face as we head down the waterfall. 😅Okumaya devam et

  • Santa Cruz sit

    5–15 Haz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    After all the amusement park fun, we headed up the coast to Santa Cruz for a 10 day house sit. Well, technically, it was two house sits separated by one day, but at the same house. So we never left.
    We visited the beach several times but unfortunately it was cold every time. The family did have some electric scooters, so Lyra got to try her hand on an electric scooter, and she got to ride their bike on all of our walks.
    While we were there, we were able to participate in the No Kings protest.

  • Carson and Virginia City

    19 Haziran 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌬 77 °F

    Next on our summer tour, we headed to Carson City for a visit to Anna's parents.
    While there, they took us all up to Virginia City. An old gold mining town turned tourist attraction. It's full of old west history, and it's where Mark Twain got his start in the newspaper business. After we got back, Lyra graciously treated us to a taffy bar and shared some of her spoils from the trip.Okumaya devam et

  • Nude beach hike

    23 Haziran 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    One of the days while in Carson, we headed up to Lake Tahoe to do a hike around the lake and possibly swim if it was warm enough.
    Unbeknownst to us was that the only good access to the lake on this hike was at a clothing optional beach. Oops! Lyra was not a fan, so we were out of there.
    Otherwise, the hike was fun. Lyra brought her new camera and documented her journey.

  • Reno sit

    25–30 Haz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 75 °F

    We house sat for a friend of Anna's parents in Reno for 5 days before heading off to our raft trip.

  • Paddle boarding

    26 Haziran 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F

    We headed back up to Lake Tahoe to do some paddle boarding but ran into some snags.
    The beach access was closed. We decided to try Spooner Lake close by. We got to paddle board, but it didn't have the same joyous impact we were expecting in the beautiful waters of Lake Tahoe. It's a small lake, and the wind was strong, so we were blown effortlessly across the lake but had to paddle like hell to get back. 😩😅Okumaya devam et

  • Hells Canyon Rafting

    1–4 Tem 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F

    From Reno, we headed up to eastern Oregon to meet our friends, Don & and Mia, who graciously invited us to four days of camping and white water rafting through Hells Canyon on the Snake River.
    Lots of fun and excitement. We saw bald eagles, bear, deer, chuckers, geese, ducks, turkey, beetles, and LOTS of spiders.
    We caught lots of fish and saw lots of stars and a beautiful sunrise. We visited some historical locations, and we got soaked in the rain on the last day.

  • Seattle sit

    6–14 Tem 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 72 °F

    After an exhausting but incredibly fun camping/ rafting trip, we got up early the next morning and headed to Seattle to keep a very affectionate kitty company for a bit.
    While there, we got to see Kylan and Marnee a few times. Which really was the sole purpose of our trip to Seattle.Okumaya devam et

  • Visit with friends 🧡

    13 Temmuz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌙 84 °F

    Our first night out of Seattle, we made it to Medford and met up with our cruising friends Bret and Marna for a delicious bar-b-q.
    They are developing a great piece of property at the top of a mountain. Great views all around.Okumaya devam et

  • Vasquez Rocks & Placerita Canyon

    15 Temmuz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F

    We were going to arrive too early so we decided to do a little sightseeing.
    Vasquez Rocks was used as the set for many old western movies. It also has some geographical significance, but don't ask me what it is.
    Placerita Cayon Nature Center was in the same general area, so we made a quick stop there. We didn't have time to hike any of the trails, but we got to enjoy some of these animals that were there on display.

  • Newport Beach sit

    17 Temmuz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 72 °F

    Just what the Dr. Ordered. A sit with two fun dogs within walking distance to the beach. The days were never that warm, so it was mostly lyra, who was going in the water. But we all got wet at least once, and we built lots of sandcastles and had a great time.Okumaya devam et

  • Burbank sit

    26 Temmuz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F

    We headed back to CA to sit close to USH. The house it was located in a really nice neighborhood. Equine focused. Two large, very friendly dogs. Usa, coyotes and horses, and parrots in the neighborhood, but the best part was, it's location to universal studios. It was an easy 15-minute drive.Okumaya devam et

  • Cousin visit

    28 Temmuz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌙 66 °F

    While at our Burbank sit, we got together with Anna's second cousin and had a dinner at a fancy, famous restaurant. It was located literally right across the street, from Warner Brothers, Studios. At one time and maybe still is. It was visited by many famous people filming across the street.Okumaya devam et

  • Scottsdale sit

    31 Temmuz 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 108 °F

    We bolted out of Burbank straight to the Phoenix area, dropped Lyra off with her mom and headed to three miniature poodles in Scottsdale.
    We spent four nights here in an incredibly chill house. The pool and hot tub were a big help with relaxation, and the dogs were a nice break from people.Okumaya devam et

  • Scottsdale sit 2

    9 Ağustos 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F

    A few days after our first sit in Scottsdale, we found another. This one also has a pool, but it also has a theater room, a pinball room, elaborate ceilings, a giant kitchen with state of art appliances...
    This was probably the fanciest house we've stayed in. Oh, and a cute kitty, too.

  • J&J housesit

    12 Ağustos 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 95 °F

    After our fancy sit in Scottsdale, we headed back over to stay with our favorite granddaughter, two dogs, and a cat for a week in Phoenix. Please don't forget the fish.
    Swimming in the pool and hanging with the animals. Oh, and we exploded a watermelon using rubber bands.Okumaya devam et

  • Scottsdale sit 3

    22 Ağustos 2025, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 88 °F

    In our never-ending quest for five-star reviews, we took one more sit in Scottsdale. It was way up north, so it prevented much social interaction with family. We mostly stayed at home and enjoyed all the creepy/amazing dolls. And of course Lucy the cat.
    There is currently a hawk residing in the neighborhood, which drinks from the pond and eats breakfast on the fence.
