Girls gone wild in Breckenridge, CO!


Stoked...ready to hit the slopes! Felicia, Yvonne, Jessica, and myself on the deck of the condo.

Quick stop to store up on energy...some protein and carbs by way of a big breakfast and a bunch of good, hot coffee! This is the Sunshine Cafe in Dillon, CO! Great food!

Oh! These ski boots are SO heavy! I don't know if I can walk out of here!

We will be here for you!

Yvonne and Liz on the Gondola "V" is for Vonne and "L" is for Liz...NOT loser!

This is Felicia getting a pep talk from Yvonne. She thinks skiing is a white people sport! We called her Diva since all she wanted to do was look cute. We got her up on the mountain, but she walked down! She did not like skiing because there was no motor and no breaks. Plus, she wanted someone to carry her skis for her. (she found someone! Ha!) Diva for sure...she waited for us in the lodge!


Jessica and myself, kicked back enjoying the ride! The view was great and we couldn't wait to start skiing!

Here we are on our first run! Jeff (in the background) was a great and patient teacher. Oh, and check it out...he is carrying Felicia's skis! He encouraged us all to do the blues and we did great. I can't believe that I didn't fall the entire day!

OK, the picture doesn't really show how steep this was, but it took our breath away to look at it and know that we were going down! This is the intermediate run that we made.
We are done for the day! Talk about work...we worked hard. By this time we could barely walk! Great fun, but our legs were about to fall off. We could barely smile to take this photo.

We hit a pub in beautiful Breckenridge to rest and gain a little strength! We danced, played a few mean games of foosball and waited for dinner time!

Beautiful girls in Beautiful Breckenridge!

Reflecting on the wonder of it all. What a great day!

The Unexpected

Sometimes, things just don't happen like we expect. Occasionally, the unexpected is a nice surprise, but sometimes the unexpected can turn an event, circumstance, or even a life, upside down. Last week, my daughter and I went to spend Spring Break with family. Our flight was lovely, the weather perfect, and we were looking forward to a stress free week. The first thing we did was eat lunch at one of our favorite Thai restaurants. As usual, we looked forward to our fortune cookies. We took turns reading and laughing...and then my daughter opened hers - "Be prepared for a change in plans." Uh-oh. We didn't like this one but we decided our week would be stress free and fun in spite of what a cookie said. Continuing on through out the day, all was well until that night. I sat outside on the porch of a friend I have known for 35 years and received news that changed something I have believed for 30 years. The words were horrible and made me so ill that I got sick within min...

I Close My Eyes

Well, I did it. I took the writer's challenge at a blog that I have been lurking around for some time. I found this blog through Laura at Wellblog 's place and have been enthralled ever since. I have dabbled in poetry on and off. Written some invitations, cards, and even a few song lyrics (for fun) but have been hesitant to post any. (roaring lion? see below post ) With the encouragement of a friend, I decided to take the challenge on L.L.Barkat's blog, in a lesson on seeing. I chose a subject that is cherished, a memory that was real and something close to my heart. The beach. Many, many days were spent at the beach in the 12 years I lived on the Southern Virginia coast. The memories are real, and when.......... I close my eyes and I can still see the beach. The endless spans of water Sometimes blue, green, or gray. It moves Gently and Violently Bubbles rise and falling forward. On and on. I close my eyes and I can still hear the crash Of tidal movement As earth slowly spi...
