"Howl I get along without you to pet me??"

 Quick, WiFi is on!

Berwick and Aria amiably sharing a  bed

 The lovely nearby Marina de Gama, where all the houses have to be white

Lovely bouganvillea  gracing the wall


Oh no, a serpent/crocodile in paradise!

Kalky's, the very popular fish and chips eatery. Not to mention samoosas, one of which turned up in my jacket pocket at the airport.

And the seagulls lurking to steal food

 Lexi?? THAT'S where Grace's dog Lexi went when she left us?

 "Seals are extremely dangerous wildlife. It is illegal to go near them." Ha, who wants to anyway?

A view of the few little planes at Atlanta's Jackson-Hartsfield Airport

Southern Life (in Africa) A

 Charles de Gaulle Airport; I could've slept in the main lobby, with sofas/beds.

 Nice, fresh produce, but wash it before you eat it.
 See, Eternal Joy Hair Salon. (Has nothing to do with me!)

 A mosque, not too far, I think, from where we handed out literature
Master Caleb Young, James and Gloria's latest addition to their family

The signature bath houses of Muizenberg;  they look better from a distance....


Kite boarding. One crashed a few feet from us. Yikes.


The Pavilion, where we do ministry on New Year's Day

Tiger's Milk-- I'm not volunteering to be the milkmaid.

Catching a ride into downtown Cape Town; no sharp turns, please

 Oldest mosque, with the five palm trees for five tenets of Islam
Art depicting township life; nothing pretty about the poverty, but God loves them. So do we.

Maine event

 Charlotte diminishing by the second

 Portland airport

 "We can spy out the enemy from these fortifications."


The lighthouse that took traversing a long, rock passage.
 
 "I love my Ariel. And I get along with Pippin, lying on his bed."

 The whole world in butterflies.

 "And cyber thieves can't penetrate this purse, 'cause it is protected."

 Doing the marginal Way Walk. Charming passersby.

 Posing with Lenny, the largest chocolate moose in the world.

 At the beautiful cemetery where we walked and took pictures.

 Unfortunately, we weren't there at the right time to go in.

It was a family affair to walk for life.
 Talk about scenic.

 It was a cold day at the cabin!

Another family outing.

 "Paparazzi everywhere wanting my picture."

 Come sit down a spell and listen to the animals.

 The moose were my favorite, thanks to the moose whisperer with us.

 Uber daddy.

 "Now let me give you a little advice on how to win this here game."
The scenic lighthouse walk en route to the airport. With a cold, cold wind. But fun!

Doing my part

"Well,  if dead people can vote, why shouldn't I? Actually, Mom wouldn't let me, so I stole her sticker."

 Looking down at Lake Lure from Chimney Rock.

 Hickory Nut Falls

 My faithful sidekick and me on the hike

 Down near the lake

Happy camper
