Wrapping up the day the crew and I went to Patagonia Lake State Park . . . .
In the town of Patagonia we stop at the market.
I pick up a few items and, as we’re leaving, Roger notices a couple of the canine locals.
The pizza joint in town displays the creativity that makes Patagonia uniquely Patagonia.
The drive from Patagonia to our camp in Las Cienegas National Conservation Area is less than 20 miles.
Soon we are surrounded by waves of grass again.
Always a pleasure to return home.
Anticipating another warm day when we left this morning, the ceiling vent lid is up. As soon as we enter, I turn on the Fantastic Fan set to “Out” and also turn on the desk fan. Immediately it’s comfortable, even though the Best Little Trailer sits in full sun.
This is a new campsite for us!
I chuckle at the recent RVers in Cieneguita Camping Area. When the forecasters predicted a rise in temperature, everybody fled the area in anticipation. We wake up, go outside, and discover everyone is gone!
You know that makes me very happy.
One of my favorite places to camp is in an empty campground.
The crew and I stroll down the lane, looking over the choice of sites.
This one is good. Away from other sites. Has its own driveway. Large area for the boys to run. We ought to move here . . . .
By the time I pack up and hitch up, it’s 4:30.
“Gee, guys, this has got to be the shortest camp move in the history of RVSue and her canine crew. Also the latest in the day.”
I try to position the BLT where I like it, but somehow the site doesn’t have charm. Like Goldilocks, we don’t give up. We find that another site is “just right.”
Speaking of “just right” . . . .
Our bed is so narrow that it’s easy to roll out of it if the BLT isn’t level from side-to-side. It’s okay if the low side is the wall, but, if the low side is the hall, I spend the night fighting gravity.
Yes, I have fallen out of bed.
I have two pieces of wood, one thick and another thicker, that I can use to lift one side. However, sometimes only a little bit of lift is required.
That’s when I use these Jack Pads
Slide in the chocks (below) and the BLT is leveled “just right!”
In some situations, I dig a hole and bring the tire into it in order to level.
I do that when I don’t want to use a thick board on the door side which would raise the step too high. Not good. Jumping up and down due to a high step might result in a fall.
In the case shown above, only a slight lift is accomplished on the door side. After you’ve set up a few camps with your trailer, you’ll know what method is best for what is indicated by the bubble in the level.
Of course, some folks have fancy, electric leveling systems . . . but what’s the fun in that? Haha!
Reggie and Roger love our new campsite!
Since no one is here and we’re far from the road, they can race around free.
As the sun nears the horizon, the boys use these precious, pre-bedtime moments for more fun.
After much racing round, they tire themselves out. Such dirty boys!
“Come on in! Supper!”
Dirty legs wiped clean with a wet rag, kibble gobbled up, drink slurped, and into bed they go. The sun hasn’t set yet and already they’re nodding off.
This was a big day for them . . . the trip to the park, a new home to explore, running free.

WOW! CYNTHIA COMES IN FIRST! GOOD JOB!
Wow – Cynthia, you are FAST> 🙂
She hit the wire several lengths ahead! Hi, Rochelle — Second place!
Love the picture of the dirty boys racing home for supper – they sure have a good life!
That’s my favorite, too. You can tell they had fun by the amount of dirt they collected. 🙂
near the top?
Hi, John! You tied second place with Rochelle!
Boys are having fun!
Hi, Joy! Yeah, Reg and Rog know how to make the most out of their day. 🙂
OK, now I’ve gone back and read the post and enjoyed the photos. Patagonia seems like a charming little place. The people who live and run businesses there must really take great pride in their town – all the walls look like they have been freshly painted and the colors are so bright and vibrant. I would have had to try the Velvet Elvis Pizzeria! The photo of the horse is just stunning – what a beautiful contrast his glistening chestnut coat is up against the burnished grasses. And then R&R look like a study in browns and whites, whirling dervishes in the clay-colored dirt. Lots of good colors in this post, Sue!
Thank you. I like your observations, Cynthia. Now that you mention it, Reg and Rog do have desert coloration.
The residents of Patagonia are artistically gifted, as evidenced by the galleries and sculptures and painted buildings. They certainly aren’t afraid of color!
The boys are so cute!
Hi, Sarvi! My boys are “just right!”
Wow, Where is everyone. We have another windy day and it is continuing to shred our neighbors canvas Storage Shed. Should have know better a year ago when they put it up.
Be assured Sue there are probably 10 times the readers then commenters. Always a delight to be here.
Thank you for your kind words, Gloria. You know how I get insecure when comments don’t come flooding in. 🙂
Canvas storage shed? In Arizona? That’s a parasail waiting for lift-off.
I love watching the boys run free. They get the security of their leashes and Mom’s watchful eye when necessary and then comes days like the one pictured here…FUN!!
Hi, Jim!
I hope you’re having a good day. You’re right. Being on leash sets up the crew for going crazy-happy when they’re set loose. They remind me of kids let out the doors on the last day of school.
Hi Sue and the boys, I love this new site. Wide open spaces.
Stay safe out there my friend, judy
Will do, Judy! You, too!
Well, I made it to the top 20 anyway! 😁 Looks like the zoom zoom boys had a great day running free and wild!
I agree with Rochelle, the buildings in Patagonia are colorful and inviting!
Enjoy your new space!💗
Thanks, Geri.
One of the things I like about western towns is the painting on exterior walls, some for the splash and some to note historical events. It really brings out a town’s personality.
I imagine you’re busy building up your inventory of Mermaid Tears…
Yes we are getting ready for the farmers market this coming Saturday!
Wanna come?
🙂
Love it! Rainy and breezy here. Sun has been in short supply for weeks! Next week we are headed to Oregon for the spring Northern Oregon Gathering of Fiberglas trailers. Hoping for at least dry weather!
Kitt
I hope you will tell us about it, Kitt. Hoping for dry weather is a common practice in Oregon, I hear. 🙂
Most definitely. Our son just moved to Eugene and is already missing Az. sunshine!
Love that the boys can run free. And that they come when they’re called for supper! 🙂
What a beautiful place. I agree with someone else who said they’d have had to try the pizza. Are you still using your griddle? I need to think about that for our camping this summer. I’ve been eating cold food on my camping trips and hot would be nice. We only camp for 3 or 4 days at a time, but peanut butter and jelly gets old about day 2.
Oh, dear, Dawn. Time to branch out from the PB & J!
No, I haven’t set up my griddle due to the fact that wind kicks up every day across these grasslands. There are days when it’s only windy for a short while but I know that will happen once I turn on the griddle. I miss using it. I was griddling up large portions of onions, peppers, and sausage, then storing it in the refrigerator to make burritos and such.
Instead I’ve been making quesadillas and burritos in my cast iron skillet on the stove. I’m glad I stocked up on refried beans, turkey sausage, salsa, cheese, hot sauce, and green chilies. I haven’t had a peanut butter sandwich since I dove into cooking Mexican.
I think I should investigate the concept of hot food!
Dawn, If you get a grill, you can take the PB & J to a whole new level! Grilled PB & J is the BEST!
Ohhhh…good point!
Had to go online to see if the Velvet Elvis Pizzeria has as creative dishes as they do a business name. They do! (not just in the names of the dishes, but also what they actually contain)
Hi, Ladybug,
It looks like they have tables outside, too, in their courtyard. Patagonia is a pleasant town. Besides that market I showed, it also has a natural foods store.
Hi Sue,
You are my “catch my breath” place when things are too much…been stopping by for a quick read or view of places and boys…thank you for sharing. Today I am going back a few weeks to really catch up to today…I’ve not been reading comments so am very happy to have the time to read your blogorino family tales with your answers.
Take Care
Hi, Deena,
I’m glad you catch your breath here with us. Enjoy the comments!
Glad for post. I am replying from by personal email today. I have been getting your posts in my work email, but in two weeks I will not have a work email any longer. Love the pizza joint. I’m from Memphis so Elvis holds a special place for me. Be safe
Only two more weeks! Yippee for you, Jean! Soon you’ll be able to count the days on your fingers.
Hi Sue, what a cute town! I love artistic places such as this. Velvet Elvis…great name, very catchy. I googled the restaurant and found it was named one of top 25 restaurants in AZ by Arizona Highways in 2005. Looking forward to visiting that area sometime.
I chuckled at your comment on all the other RVers fleeing the forecasted heat 😁 I have to admit, I would probably have been among them. I don’t tolerate heat very well. Once it starts getting in mid 80s that’s too hot for me! I will admit though that I did head north a little earlier than I probably should have. I guess God had mercy on me in my ignorance though. I have had good weather temperature wise. This being my first winter it’s still a learning experience for me.
I have an author recommendation for those looking for something new. Wiley Cash has written three novels. I have read all three, having just finished the third, The Last Ballad. All three were excellent. I think it is unusual for a new author to start off with three very good books. The storylines are compelling and he really brings the characters to life.
Hi, Debra & Misty,
We appreciate book recommendations. Thanks!
The Last Ballad: A Novel
Funny thing about everybody fleeing the campground because of the prediction of higher temperatures. Sure, it was warmer, but not as hot as the forecasters said, plus the wind came along and moderated the heat. Ever stand in a warm wind? Very pleasant. Even more so after everyone has left!
Interesting info about Velvet Elvis pizza. Yes, you were blessed with good weather. I’ve been caught moving north too soon (or moving south too late) almost every year.
Thanks for the “new to me” author recommendation, Debra. His books are set in places close to where I live. This will be a real treat!
Your welcome Judy, hope you enjoy them. It does add to the enjoyment of a book when it is set in a locale one is familiar with.
hi Sue, thanks for the information about the Jack Pads. i will buy some because they will solve a big problem we have when we park the trailer. when our 1955 vintage trailer was refurbished, the builder didn’t make the bed level. it is off by about 3/4’s of an inch, which doesn’t sound like much. it slops to the back and then i spend the whole night restlessly fighting gravity like you. i wake up with tired hips.
we use a 24 inch carpenter’s level on the bed to get the trailer level to that mark. it has made a huge difference for me to sleep. the floor isn’t totally level but who cares? our problem is getting the tires in the right place to make the bed level. we sometimes spend a half hour readjusting the jacks.
so again, thanks for the information. i know sometimes you think that your little asides about your day-to-day challenges may not resonate with everyone reading your postings, but these gems have helped me over the years to get better equipment. another example is your suggestion of the flexible funnel that you got at the auto supply store. that funnel has helped us so many times, was cheap, and i got it at a place that i would never have thought of shopping for camping supplies. i say, Yay Sue! bess
Hi, bess,
Little things like a funnel or jack pads can be a big help. Thank you for letting me know that you have benefitted from one of my tidbits. 🙂 I think part of the fun of camping the way I do is coming up with solutions or methods to make a task go easier.
Another reason I like those jack pads is the cost. Because they aren’t very expensive I don’t suffer a great loss when I drive off and leave them behind. Ha!
been there, done that. we drive off and left our $100 step for the door in Idaho and didn’t discover it missing till Utah. we bought an $11 dollar replacement, not as nice or sturdy but it works for now.
we left our wooden block for the tongue in a campground and thankfully it was still there when we went back. another time, we left a $100 memory foam pad for our twin mattress that goes in our dinette when our grandson camps with us. i trust someone else was jubilant at their good fortune in finding the items.
Gee, I should follow you around.
Patagonia looks like a fun town to visit. I agree with others I would have to check out the pizza place. So many towns and cities out west have colorful, funky and unique art on the buildings and sometimes on cars! Always fun to see.
Love to see all that gorgeous, golden grass and the boys running wild and free. Looks like a great time was had by all:)
Hi, Gingerita,
From the comments on the pizzaria, I think readers wish I’d gone inside and given a food review. We did have a good day. The brief time we spent at the park was enough, the drive to and from was enjoyable, and it was nice to come home where Reg and Rog could play.
Hi Sue,
I was trying to read the sign just beyond the canine locals and the chatting human locals but couldn’t quite make it out beyond “Tin Shed”. Maybe the bottom word was theater, but my eyes aren’t what they used to be. At any rate, the town looks like a wonderful place to spend a day…even the drive through the grassland looks pleasant. Enjoy!
Hi, Joe,
It’s the Tin Shed Theater. Here’s what I found out about it:
Located behind Patagonia Creative Arts is the Tin Shed Theatre and Movie House, a 100-seat venue that features performances by artists and troupes from across the nation and the world. The Tin Shed’s first production was in 1999, when it premiered “Spooky Casa,” an interactive “haunted house” for Halloween. Since then, the theatre has hosted dancers from India (through UA Presents), a folk artist from Australia, elementary school productions, and dramas such as “Velveteen Rabbit,” “Wyatt Earp,” “The Sisters Bell,” and “Quilters.” –patagoniaaz.com
Peace and quiet! I love that too.
Hi, Renee,
And this was the place we left recently because of the lack of peace and quiet. Like I often say, timing makes all the difference.
What a great picture the one with the horse is! You have a such a gift for framing and composition. That photo would look really good hanging on one of my walls.
Oh my, the joy of racing around free, I’m so glad the other campers left and you moved into that spot. How wonderful for you and the boys to have had the campground all to yourselves. They are so cute running home for supper, those eight little dirty legs make me grin and chuckle 🙂 .
Thank you, weather, for appreciating the horse photo for what it is. I’m pleased you like it. I have to admit, it’s difficult to take a bad photo of a horse. 🙂
You should see the way Reggie and Roger play in the dirt! The dirt is very fine and sandy which makes it great for rolling and wrestling in. Then they come running to me in the camp chair to jump on my lap and rub the dirt all over my clothes. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Aw-w, what a happy scene! I think you have your priorities in the right order,wearing a little dirt is worth exchanging affection with your buddies. Whenever you tell me something like that I start thinking about how nice it would be to have dogs again.
My granddaughter and I spoke with some people near us in a restaurant last week. After lunch they were going to see the Chihuahua puppy a friend had given to their mother that morning. They showed me a picture of two puppies the owner still wanted someone to take. They gave me her phone number, but I decided not to call and bring the cuties home for two reasons.
First, in general, cats don’t adapt to changes as readily as dogs do. It took a long time for Kyla and Polly to become as happy as they are to be living here together. It would be nice for them to have a little more time before they need to adjust to having dogs in our home, too.
The second reason might have been a bigger issue. That family had gotten other dogs from the lady who was offering to give puppies away. The parent of this new litter had previously given birth to dogs that were described as having a ” sugar problem”. I asked if they were diabetic and was told “We don’t think so, we just give them a spoon of honey when they are having problems, then they’re fine.”
My gut feeling was that they couldn’t afford a lot of vet bills so had no idea of what the problem really was. It seemed best not to even visit the puppies and find out more about them. I would likely find it to hard to resist adopting them if I saw them in person. It’s more likely that at the moment I’d think it would be easy enough to take care of whatever problems arose, then later find out it was truly difficult for all concerned.
Hi, weather,
You’re wise to be cautious about looking at puppies. They tend to obliterate our logic, common sense, and grip on reality. 🙂 I wonder how many dogs have found homes with my readers because of the influence of Roger and Reggie (and Spike and Bridget before the). If any did, I hope they are safe, secure, and happy.
By sharing your reasons for not calling about the puppies, you illustrate how important it is to make a very careful, well-thought-out decision before going ahead and adopting a puppy. If a chronic condition arises, one could face large investments of time, money, and emotion. And the other family members need to be considered, too. Of course, if everything works out okay or is manageable, the rewards are immeasurable. 🙂
The way we live, dirt is a part of each day. Ha! There are times I look down at the clothes I’m wearing and think, “Gee, I know these clothes were freshly washed and I didn’t roll in the dirt, so how come I look like a bum?” Then the two reasons go racing by. 🙂
I’m sooo glad to have this post to read! Needed a break from doing very last-minute taxes. We had a great camping trip to the S.C. coast, now duty calls. Supposed to go down to 32 tonight; time to cover some plants. My peony is loaded with blooms for the first time and needs protected. I love bright colors and think Patagonia is just the place for me! R & R are perpetual motion and nonstop fun…. until they wear themselves out. Just like little kids.
Hi, Judy,
I love peonies! I think they give roses competition, they are so beautiful and elegant. I hope the blooms on yours survive the cold.
Patagonia seems like a very friendly, laid–back town. One thing that could be considered a positive or a negative depending upon one’s point of view… It is off by itself. Not isolated, but there’s one main way in and one main way out in a rural area. I think it would be a nice place to live if you knew a lot of people there and enjoyed their company.
What a difference — camping on the SC coast or doing taxes. 🙂
Love the Velvet Elvis Pizza joint. I would have had to try that. I love the horse in the middle of the nice grassy field. He/she is beautiful. Of course I always enjoy seeing Reg & Rog having a blast running free. They are so cute and fun.
The tips to make RVing easier all always a blessing. I need to get a funnel. I have needed one so many times, but forget is when I’m out an about. Hate that you haven’t been able to use the griddle. I do make a lot of Mexican type meals on the stove as well as stir fry. Only 1 pan and a good meal of veggies and/or meat and fast to make. Think I will have some tonight.
Hi, Barbara,
Those one-pan meals are great when cooking in a tiny kitchen. I keep saying to myself, “Tomorrow I’ll have something totally different,” and then tomorrow comes and I’m cooking Mexican again. When I’m able to use my griddle again I’m going to try vegetable stir-fry. I miss the Hispanic foods section (and other ethnic foods, too) at the Smart and Final in Blythe. What a wonderland that is!
You forget to get a funnel. Know what I do? I forget that I’ve already purchased something and so I end up buying it again! I did that with mustard. Ended up with enough containers of mustard to last me for the rest of my life. Haha!
I still need to get a grill like you have. Do you have a link?
Recently I was having a conversation with a friend that is Hispanic…we were comparing Mexican food where I come from, Carlsbad New Mexico, and the California Mexican food…
Have you had sopipallas with honey? Oh my!
One thing he told me about is a shake on seasoning called Tejine. Oh my! I got the low salt variety, wow!
There is a stand we pass every Sunday where two men have fruit cups for sale. They have watermelon, honeydew, cantaloupe, pineapple, mango, coconut, oranges…all fresh. And they cut it in front of you, bite sized pieces, served in a quart plastic container all for six bucks. They also sprinkle with the Tejine ….
Yesterday I had made split pea soup, waiting at home, so we stopped for a quart of fresh fruit…..talk about died and gone to heaven!
So next time you need a real California Mexican treat, get some fresh fruit and sprinkle with Tejine!
I think it is made in Mexico so not strictly California treat….but, hey, yummy! I plan to slice some cucumbers to go with dinner, guess what I’m putting on top?
Hi, Lee,
No, I’ve never had sopipallas, with or without honey. About that seasoning you call Tejine. I have something called Tajin which is the brand name. It’s orange and very hot. I took a chance buying it, not knowing what it was. Turns out it’s the flavoring on hot fries (not a fave of mine). I rarely use it and, when I do, sparingly. It puts some kick in refried beans in burritos when I’ve run out of green chilies.
What you mention sounds very different as I wouldn’t want what I have on fruit.
Here’s a link for my Blackstone griddle:
Blackstone Table Top Grill – 17 Inch Portable Gas Griddle – Propane Fueled – For Outdoor Cooking While Camping, Tailgating or Picnicking
The price is good right now.
I also keep a link to my griddle in the sidebar. (You may have to minimize your font on your device to see the sidebar.) The griddle is one of my best purchases ever. Changed the way I eat for the better!
Waking up and everyone’s gone??? Happy dance time!
And the crew is free……..whoooopppie!
Sleeping fighting gravity….too funny! Way to think ahead!
Grill time? Certainly one got tortillas in town. Enjoy he serenity!
Yeah, I bought two packs of tortillas at the Patagonia Market. They came from Nogales. Very thin, easy to tear, but tasty!
Happy Happy doggies. love seeing them play.
the local church has a thrift store attached. only open Fri. & Sat. I believe.
Hi, Kelly,
I know you love thrift stores, as do I. I bet you could write a great book, “Thrift Stores of the Southwest and the Bargains I Found There.” 🙂
Hey Sue! Thanks for the post. The picture of the horse was quite a pleasant surprise. I also love the pictures of R&R running free and happy. I am so jealous if you right now that you don’t have to deal with yearly car inspections. It is a dirty word to me right now as I’ve tried to get my car inspected twice and have been to the garage four times now come this Saturday. It’s a first world problem, but man is it aggravating. So nice to read your blog and take a breath!
Hi, Dawn,
I’m sorry you’ve wasted that time trying to comply with the car inspection rule. I vaguely remember annual inspections from when I lived in NY state. It was a pesky, annoying requirement, kind of like taxes. Good luck getting that job done.
You’re welcome, regarding the photos. The horse was in a field with two others and they were spread widely apart. I thought a pic of only one might be too plain a scene. However, it turned out okay in an uncluttered way. I’m glad you liked it.
Wow, looks kind of like the life of Riley for the boys!! So nice they have each other…2 dogs together can have such a nice life!!
Hi, Elizabeth,
In a way, having two dogs relieves some pressure off of me. After Bridget passed away, Reggie was an only dog and he followed me around all the time. If I tried to relax, read a book, whatever, there he was staring at me, needing attention. Together Reggie and Roger entertain each other and that gives me some breathing space.
Hi Sue, Reggie and Roger! I just had dinner but I’m getting hungry again reading about all the good food in southern Arizona. I have fantastic news, I now have a new trailer, most of my stuff is in storage and I am getting ready to hit the road again in June. Maya seems very excited, she has checked out our new digs and given it her seal of approval. I’m sure you have heard that there is no spring here in New York, sleeting this morning and about 37 degrees. I need some warmth!!!
Congratulations on the new rig, Pam and Maya! I wish you many happy camps and restful nights in wonderful places. Oh, and warmth, too! 🙂
What a cool town…love the Velvet Elvis! I do love those artsy towns. Reminds of the trips I made to Tubac the first couple of years I visited my parents when the moved to AZ. Love that town!
I love the picture of the boys running for their supper as well as the one where it looks like Roger is giving Reggie a kiss on the cheek!
Crazy weather…The 70 degree weather that originally was supposed to show up Saturday was changed to not make it this far north. In fact it was freezing, snow, sleet, wind an rain all weekend…still raining like crazy and windy today. i had a 1/4 in of ice to chip on my windshield this morning….really missing spring!!!! Maybe this weekend.
Hi, Jan,
I looked up Tubac — It is an interesting town. “Where art and history meet.”
Don’t give up hope! Spring will arrive with summer on its heels. 🙂
Patagonia looks like a friendly, creative place! It has waves of grass nearby, too! The dogs look like they’re having a great time, too. All in all, this camp seems really good. I can take more heat more happily than most people if the humidity is low, so I’d probably appreciate the empty campground.
Low humidity and frequent breezes make a world of difference. We’ve been comfortable here. Before going to bed for the night, I close all the windows because the mornings are chilly until the sun is up a while. Reggie and Roger have figured out it’s best not to jump out of bed too early.
Hey Sue,
Yeah the horse pic is good…scrolled down to it and …. whew! Some stress I was not aware of slid off…That’s what a good picture can do! And I can relate to the boys running free…I like that too! (Get a little every now and then-it’s little but good! I mean really little!) In general Thanks for all the sharing from your photos, pups, and surroundings! ALL pix of pups are so worthy! Thanks! And, would you tell them we all said ‘thanks’? They have no idea!!
Thank you, Mary, for sharing your response to the horse photo. Always glad to provide therapy photos! 🙂
Sue,
As always your pics and stories of what’s going on with you and the boys are a breath of fresh air!
I appreciate the camping info too. The explanations of why and how you do stuff is good info for us less experienced campers! And the pictures explain so much! Very helpful, thank you!
I started reading your blog from the beginning for the second time just because it’s enjoyable and informative reading. I read the other day where your blog count got to 1000 hits. I was wondering if you’re still able to see the number of hits that read your blog and if you’d be willing to share that number now. It must be a much much larger number because you are mentioned in other well known full time RVer blogs and articles and video, or vlogs or whatever they’re called. And you have so many wonderful Blogorino’s that comment. I bet if every single Blogorino commented on one post that post would be humongously long! 🙂
Thank you for a great blog. You bring so much joy to so many of us. Even though I don’t comment often, please know I’m one of your faithful readers!
Thanks!
Hi, Beth,
Thanks for the feedback on the content of my blog. I’m glad you find it helpful. Thanks also, Beth, for being a faithful reader. 🙂
The daily hits on my blog vary widely from around 2,500 (when I haven’t posted) to over 8,000 (hot topic). Usually the number is somewhere in between. I don’t do Facebook or other social media. I don’t know if my numbers would be higher if I had people coming here from there.
The numbers are not what’s important. It’s the “engagement” of my readers that matters to me. Your response about my blog’s info being helpful is part of that!
Ok, because I don’t want you to get “insecure” I’m going to comment on things in this post that moved me. The horse, all by his lonesome, but don’t think he was. Weather was far more eloquent than I for that picture. The more sites you find to park the BLT with nothing but the beauty that surrounds you gives me at least, cannot speak for others, serenity which is very much needed at this point in time. If you need to have the sweet twosome fill in here and there, hey, it’s OK! We are here, Be Well.
Hi, JazzLover,
Sending you waves and waves of serenity, washing away all your cares….. Thank you for the note. You be well, too.
Much appreciated. Thank You
😃🐾
