Ohio wins for having the prettiest fall leaves! New Albany is already the prettiest city in Ohio (to me) and the fall leaves just make it that much better.

Wildflowers in Wyoming
I am loving all of the different wildflowers in Wyoming this summer! They are everywhere and they are so beautiful! I keep making Chris pull over so I can take photos of them. Here are some of my favorites: Not wildflowers, but look at how thick this pine tree is – amazing:
Angostura Reservoir Waterfront Campsite
We are back at one of our favorite places in South Dakota – Angostura! It is really hard to get a waterfront spot at Angostura but we managed to get a waterfront spot and an end spot! We really love looking out over the lake. We had a cute family of Canadian Geese we saw…
Pierre, South Dakota
The grounds at the capitol building in Pierre, South Dakota are beautiful! There is a large pond with a walking path around it and a few different garden areas. This was a water feature at the Veteran’s Memorial and it extended out over the pond: It was a hot day and James the Poodle wasn’t…
South Dakota Rainbows
Isn’t that the craziest set of clouds and a rainbow? I’m so glad I had my phone while we were walking James so I could take this photo! While in Belvidere, South Dakota, we saw rainbows every night. And usually they were double rainbows! It was the craziest thing – a big storm would roll…
Best Poodle Friends
James and Faris are best friends and I love taking photos of them together! I made them matching bandannas so they look like Poodle siblings!
Late Spring Snow in Georgetown
A late spring snowstorm arrived! We love walking James in the snow! He doesn’t mind wearing his dog winter coat and dog boots, too. The next morning, I noticed our community water bowl that I leave out for the dogs of Georgetown was frozen and covered in snow! That didn’t stop James from trying to…
More Tidal Basin Cherry Blossoms
I enjoy getting up really early to walk around the National Mall in Washington, DC. The crowds are smaller and it is usually nice and quiet. It was a little bit cool and overcast, though. I would have preferred a warm sunny day! But summer will be here soon enough!
Georgetown Cherry Blossoms
The cherry blossoms in the East Village of Georgetown are in full bloom! I walked over to one of my favorite parks, Rose Park, and brought James along as my model. On our way home, we walked past the neighbor with multiple Ferraris that he parks on the streets of Georgetown and I thought the…
Spring in Washington, DC
The spring flowers in Georgetown always make me smile! They are everywhere! Tree boxes near the street have flowers, front yards have flowers and window boxes have flowers.
James the Therapy Dog in the Springtime
The daffodils are popping up all over and spring is here! James sometimes wears fun costumes for his therapy dog work. For St. Patrick’s Day James has a funky green hat we found in New Orleans years ago: James also has a cowboy hat that he wears for visits. He will actually keep the cowboy…
Fall Leaves and James the Model
James just wants to enjoy his morning walks and I stop him so often to take photos! The fall leaves are just so beautiful! I made a new bandana for James with leaves, too:
Fall in Ohio
I love the beauty in changing seasons. I love that one day a tree will look one way and the next day it can look completely different. I took a bunch of photos the other day here in Ohio – everywhere we go the colors are so beautiful! This house has a LOT of pumpkins:…
Vintage Photos with Poodles
I fell down a rabbit hole of vintage Poodle photos this afternoon. I finally had to put my laptop away! So many of these vintage photos made me smile! This one is so cute because she has a Poodle handbag! I think she just said “I want another Poodle” ha:
James gets Professionally Groomed – Finally!
We all know this has been a weird year with Covid and business shutdowns. James was groomed in Atlanta back in January 2020 and then for non-Covid reasons, I decided to buy this Arco Cordless clipper kit on Amazon. I had been joining James on grooming visits since his groom in Nuremberg, Germany and I…
James the Poodle: Six Weeks Old
I posted back in September the old photos I found of James when he was three weeks old. I realized today that I never posted his six week photos! James was so tiny – he could be bathed in the kitchen sink! James and all of his Standard Poodle littermates: One puppy wandered off the…
Spring in Switzerland
It seems like it has been a long and cold winter. But the days are sunny and the temperatures aren’t quite so cold here in Geneva (we still have our radiators on though). I was excited to see signs of Spring in the park: crocuses and daffodils! We planted a bunch of bulbs in our…
Beautiful Marseille, France
Marseille is definitely one of my favorite cities in France. I’ve been waking up before sunrise to walk James and I just love the view from right outside our apartment’s door: I usually walk James around the grounds of Abbaye Saint-Victor and we look out over Fort Saint-Nicolas and the Mediterranean Sea. And before bed,…
James and His New Frisbee in Sun Valley
While we were in Ketchum, Idaho, we found a cute dog shop called Thunderpaws. They had so many toys and of course dog food and treats. They also had dog boots! And then we spotted this giant frisbee from Ruffwear. It is a floating foam disc and it is HUGE! And the best part: James…
James the Poodle: Three Weeks Old
I am going through old photos and I found these photos of James when he was three weeks old back in May 2010. We don’t know for sure which puppy is James but we have a pretty good guess in some of the photos. Which puppy do you think is James?
