Heartbroken

This is a time of sadness as we all say goodbye to Maja...  Judi's heart is broken as Maja is now on the Rainbow Bridge waiting for her.  Maja lost her battle of Congestive Heart Failure 2/8/2016.  I heard Judi telling the story of how she went to a fundraiser car wash and  brought her truck in to be washed and  while waiting she saw a beautiful dog from across the lot.  Judi loves animals and went right to her and asked about her and found out she was needing a home.  That was 12 years ago, who knew this pup who was suffering from flea infestation, blood spots from the bites and hair loss would come home and melt our hearts.  Maja was Judi's shadow and went everywhere with her, even to work sometimes, where she would help calm a victim who was suffering from trauma.  Maja has won the hearts of many and loved being with people.  She gave love so freely and will be missed by those who loved her, even me.  Thank you Maja for all the love you gave us.  Please enjoy the pictures of her below...

Christmas Away From Home!

Christmas Fun!

Christmas time was a time of giving and the gals wanted to help out a friend whose granddaughters were coming to visit. 
Sierra and Cassidy came to visit their grandparents and got to stay with me during that time.  First I got to travel not too far from home and stayed in the driveway of a strange house.  But someone came and decorated me on the outside I felt warm with the lights and it was so pretty.  Then Sierra and Cassidy came and spent time with me so I wan't alone at Christmas.  What a wonderful experience the gals were great and I loved every minute of it!   What a fun  and Groovy Christmas for all!!!

Rainbow's Week at Paynes Prairie State Park

Ahhhhhmazing....a whole week to unwind and relax, just what the gals need.  Jeez I have never seen them so tense.  Well we are in the right place to change that for them.  
     Wow here we are just parked and bam someone want's me to pose for a picture, well of course I said yes!!  Happy to supply smiles and retro emotions for all who stop by to visit with me.   Yes now we have a fire, it's looking better already, oh groovy Judi is pulling out the lights for nighttime viewing.  We are set and time to explore.  

Hammock time for Marla.....oh yes we can't for get Maja chillin' too!   

Relaxing time is over now lets walk some trails......

La Chua Trail 

Chin-ups for Marla

This speaks for itself, YIKES!!!

Dang those gals were brave,  so glad they arrived back to camp safe and sound!    Rest up and Judi and Maja are off again going GeoCaching, she found it and took a small Owl button and left one of the lizards that glows in the dark.  Now back to camp...

Day 4 and the smells of breakfast is wafting through the forest, what will today bring?
Today a 2 mile hike on the Chachula Trail and another Geo Cach find for Judi at the trailhead.  

Shhh gator by the trail....

Hurry gals back to camp, whew that was a close call.  
Back at camp safe and sound and Edith and Irwin from Montana stopped by they love me and they even have their own blogsite but Judi seems to have a quick forgetter...smh.   Okay now we get ready to meet up with Madine and Davey in Gaineville for pizza .

 Satchel's Pizza in Gainesville was a real find what a groovy place and fun stuff to look at.  Lots of retro stuff and awesome service and fantastic food!   It was awesome meeting up with Madine and Davey and just catching up on everything.   

Now who is this dude Marla is hanging out with, hummm what is he digging up?   










Day 5
Judy and DJ came for a visit the gals all had breakfast at Pearls and chilled.  

Day 6 Judi and Marla walked more trails and saw a Bison up close and personal and saw plenty of deer.   I think they were a little scared if ya ask me.  (shhh don't tell em I said so ).
Today's trails was Jacksons Trail and Part of Cones Dike trail and then back to the Observation Deck.  

Pretty Lady and one cool tree!

Okay now this is too close...scary..

Not where's Waldo.....Where's Bison??



 Day 7   time to pack up and say goodby what a great time we had here and we will be back again.  PPP is just an awesome place to visit and so much to see one more photo from Judi's point of view, always remember to look up....

From the Observation deck off of 441...Judi lying on her back on the deck and doing what she always tries to do...beauty is all around us just be still and look. 
Peace out, till our next adventure...

Our November trip to Anastasia State Park

What a relaxing trip to St Augustine, it was an enjoyable time, at least this time they didn't chase us out because of a hurricane.  Even Madine and Davey stopped by to see us and spend some time there.  But the gals just chilled and walked trails and enjoyed each others company.  Spent time at the beach and explored even did some Geo-caching.  Marla did it again and found the cache.  Hoping we can come again soon.  Where will our next trip be???  Follow me and I will tell you.  Peace and Love...

Home Sweet Home 

Trip to Suwannee River State Park

What a great little park, who knew how beautiful a park it is.  Judi and Marla walked a couple of trails, leaving me behind, (sniff, sniff) and the gals even tracked down a  Geo Cache too.  I heard them say the bath house was really clean, with lots to do here at Suwanee and they wanted to return here  again soon.  

This was on the trail really easy walk.

 This is looking out towards the Suwanee, there is a trail that follows along looking down toward the bank.  There is a steep boat ramp that you can access.  I think we will definitely bring the kayaks.

 This cute little bugger was hanging out just waiting for something.  I heard Judi say she did the "spider dance" when she walked into one looking for the Geo Cache...lol.  

This is our neighbors who were camped next to us                        they fit right in with us!

Looking Rad, so Suwannee here I come...

This trip was a gas, so groovy baby, that is what I am, not to be bragging but I am so totally rad!!  I can't even count the times someone snapped a picture of me.  Mack did a primo job on me and I am diggin' my new look. 
Cruising over to Suwannee some people were pointing and waving at me.  When we got there everyone was smiling and taking pictures.  I have to admit I have never looked more colorful.  Judi and Marla knew what they wanted to do with me I just never realized it would be so...Awesome!!  This has been a super fun and far out weekend with the gals, very laid back.  Here are a few pics...

My Arrival at Suwannee River State Park

Can you see me??

Are you smiling??

Only Peace and Love Here..
