National Puppy Day Shoot

National Puppy Day is March 23rd so we wanted to help TARAA get their rescue puppies adopted, just like we did for National Dog Day in 2017.
Happy #NationalPuppyDay! #AdoptDontShop #TARAA #TheAnimalRescueAndAdoptionAgency

I know I work for the #PGATOUR but this week it was all about rescue puppies & #K9sForWarriors.

I think he likes me!

I had to take a few shots with my iPhone X.

I think Ryan needs a puppy!

K9s for Warriors

We had a K9s for Warriors luncheon for women warriors & their special pups in the clubhouse at TPC Sawgrass.

Everybody was so well behaved! Those are treats on her paws.

After lunch we did a group shot on the back lawn.

Kiss Me!

What can I say ... Stella is Irish!

Anna's Birthday

On the way home for lunch, I stopped off at Anna & Mitch's for her birthday & to meet baby Niall.

My Birthday Weekend ... Day 3

Espresso & fresh baked yummy donut at the Urban Bean Coffeehouse on our way to some estate sales.

John & Sherry invited Stella & me over for birthday dinner.

Stella LOVES them & the feeling is mutual.

Luckily, Stella didn't see the 3 lizards overhead.

Do I smell steak???

Happy Birthday to us! For 6 days (March 3-8), Stella & I were the same age in dog years. How cool is that?!? It's highly unlikely to happen in your lifetime!

I had to blow Stella's candle out. I was afraid her fur would ignite.

SQUIRREL ! ! !

My Birthday Weekend ... Day 2

Amazing lunch at The Bread & Board.

Chickpea & Farro crispy fritters (aka falafel), tahini, spiced yogurt, tomato-parsley salad, cucumber-mint jam HOT

Sunset in Mary's backyard.

My Birthday Weekend ... Day 1

I think Google wants my photogenic birthday cupcake.

When I tried to take a pic of it, it landed upside down on the deck.

Google offered to lick up the frosting.

Still photogenic!

We went to the Jacksonville Zoo so I could shoot more tests with the Sony RX10-IV. Of course I used my iPhone to shoot this snack bar sign ...

& the swamp gator

The next 6 zoo pix are with the Sony ...
Angolan Colubus Monkey

I always enjoy shooting the Rainbow Lorikeets.

Flamingo

I think the Emu resembles our President!

Coyote

After the zoo, we took a ride on some back roads & to shoot one of my favorite subjects ... rust & peeling paint. First stop, an abandoned motel in Yulee.

Apparently, this souvenir shop still sells film!

Beetle in the garage ...

This abandoned BBQ is definitely not open!
