A Boy & His Tail

I love this pic of Google snuggling with his curly tail!

Catalina Afternoon Sky

Crazy sky at Catalina & it was only 3:30pm.

It was also freezing on the beach.

Embassy Diner

Yay! I won the December 2025 Embassy Explorations photo contest with my pic of our Embassy at the Embassy Diner in Bethpage, NY.

Thanksgiving

 We went to Thanksgiving at Mike & Emily's house.

 

Daisy & JoJo were camera shy, but Ozzie smiled for the camera.

Lilah & Ozzie got tons of exercise chasing a lot of balls.

Penny & Eliza pose with their pup Daisy.

Lilah liked hanging out with Calvin.

Wendy, Jake, Lilah & Gabby.

It wasn't easy getting 6 pups in one photo when they have a huge yard to run around in.

 

It wasn't easy getting 24 humans in a pic before dinner either.

 

Mike, Valerie, Jake, Sandra, Molly & Ashley. 

 

Before dinner, there was a big meeting of the 3G's Club (Grandma, Grandpa & Grandkids) in the basement.

Emily & Mike prepped the turkey for carving.

 

 Ozzie, Lilah & Google wanted to help out.

  

Larry welcomed everyone to Thanksgiving dinner before we split up into two dining rooms. 

 

During dinner, everyone got a small card with a cute caricature of a turkey. We each listed three things we were grateful for. After dinner, Eliza, Miranda & Penny read a group poem they wrote from everyone's input.

When Google passed out in Daisy's bed ...

 

 

... Daisy was happy resting on the rug.

 

Google & Daisy were very interested when Sandy was packing up the leftovers.

Nikki & Louis Wedding

Today Nikki & Louis got married at Land's End in Sayville, NY.

Beau was the ring bearer. He's so cute!

Beau delivered the rings.

Awesome cake!

I love the detail ... Beau was hungry!

The perfect photo bomb!

Dreary Day at Catalina

There was a lot of maintenance work being done at Catalina today.

 

Virginia Sites & Camera Heritage Museum

Google & Mary LOVE the Virginia Welcome Center at Lambsburg.

The Springsteen movie, Deliver Me From Nowhere was playing at the Buchanan Theatre. 

I love old neon, even if it isn't lit up.

Mary found the Camera Heritage Museum in Staunton, VA on Roadside America. David Schwartz gave us a great tour of his museum. There is so much great stuff. I highly recommend checking it out if you're ever in the area.

 

I LOVE the Snoopy-Matic camera from 1961.
