My Life On The River


 Happy to be home!!!!!
 

I kinda fell in love with this print,so I bought it!
It is done by this man..Rick Beaver who was born on an Indian Reservation on Rice Lake southern Ontario...


Hey I am home and so happy to be here!!!!
I feel like Dorothy in "THE WIZARD OF OZ" There's no place like home!
It was an interesting trip...I got to see many things that I always wanted to see...like Alcatraz,Golden Gate Bridge,and many other cool things!
Some were not so cool like the home less woman who was taking cigarette butts out of the ash trays at the hotel,and smoking them!
Others just begging for money!
We did a tour of Napa Vally,and got to sample lots of wine at 3 different wineries....Must say I was very smiley when we got back to the hotel,and then it was party time .... for Saint Patrick's Day
I was kinda tired the next day when we headed for Seattle!
It was nice the first day there...Then the next day it was cold and raining all day,but I knew that is how the weather is there this time of the year! Seen many beautiful things..All of the land marks,and eat some good food! This place called Rays..That has a beautiful view of the mountains.
I took pictures that I am going to post as soon as I get my computer fixed!
Anyway ..I missed all of you,and hope to get caught up soon,and get around to everyones blog!

 The Circus is coming to town ! " Beware "
 


I will be leaving Wednesday for a short trip to San Francisco,and then to Seattle....I know it will be a few months before the Circus comes to town but, I wanted to leave this message before I go to give everyone that visits my blog something that at least I think is very improtant.... And that is the way Circus animals live for our amusement! I can remember when I was younger.. I was thrilled to go see the Circus,but that was before I learned how horrible these wild animals have to live,and how they are abused to make them do the tricks that we all think are so cool!
This video is about 12 minutes long.Footage of it was taken with hidden cameras,and has "VERY SAD" and GRAPHIC footage of elephants being beaten to make them preform,and shot when they tried to escape their tortured life!
So if you don't think you can deal with that.... don't watch this video,but please think before you pay to go see a Circus again about what kind of life these wild animals are living just for our amusement!!!



I will never spend another dime of my money knowing that it is helping to support this kind of life for animals that were supposed to be living free in the wild,not in small cages!!!!!



Thanks for reading this ! I will miss everyone while I am away!
Love,Dixie

 Ice Jam is gone!!!!!
 

Update on the ice jam at my place!
I spent most of Sunday,watching the ice move!
There was a jam here and a big one upstream that took sometime to get here!
It was the one with the most ice behind it!! I recorded it so maybe someday when I get smart enough I can post some of it!
I would post pictures,but thats not working right now either,so I hope when I get home from California,and Washington to have time to fix that.

 Strange colored Whitetail deer
 

I received these pictures from a freind...

I don't know anything about where they were taken!

I just think that it is cool to see a deer colored like this....
It happens in nature,but is not a common thing!

I'm hoping she gets away from the road!!!
Hope you enjoy seeing her!
