Peace Love & Vans Day 1

There was a LONG line to get in the gate at Withlacoochee River Park in Dade City, FL!

 Mary is so excited ...

... but we can't get set up until the line starts moving. They estimate 500 vans are expected.

Busy weekend schedule!

There was a giant inflatable panther at the Live Wildly booth.


We got a great spot for our campsite & set up our new Clam Venture screen tent.

All of our fellow Embassy campers also parked in the Birds of a Feather section.

Crazy sky this morning!

Brothers Gutters replaced all of my aging gutters today.

I love watching gutters being made. It's so cool!

Stella Remembrances

Liz & Gregg sent me this beautiful commemorative carving.

 Sandy, Christian, Trish & Jen sent me this lovely Peace Lily & wildflower seeds.

 

 My Stella puppy photo wall

 

My absolutely favorite Stella art is the painting from Lauren & Rob! It was a surprise present they made for me in 2014 ... 11 years ago! I LOVE this so much!!!


In 2016 I painted this puppy portrait of Stella.
 

Lisa got me these Wheatens in a VW Beetle in 2019.
 

 
Amy 3D printed this Wheaten for me in 2022.
