Coast

I am back from the coast. What a wonderful and relaxing couple of days. It was beautiful while we were there. The Oregon coast is not tropical but it is truly beautiful. This picture was taken from the front of our cabin as the sun set. For my birthday I got myself a graphic tablet. I haven't played with it yet but I will soon. The tablet comes with a couple of programs, one of which is Corel Painter. You can take pictures and make them look like paintings. I'm hoping to use that on a few of these pictures.

We went exploring along this stretch of coast looking for some starfish. It's a beautiful stretch of coast.

I think Jeff took this picture after I was chasing some sea birds :)

Here I am catching a Hermit crab.

Last night I was looking to see what freebies I missed while I was gone and I found the freebie from weeds and wildflowers and scrapped a page. I need to upload this to the challenge gallery too. The picture is of me, my sister Jodi and my dad. I scanned the picture and printed it to frame and hang. I'm also sending a copy to my sister for her birthday. I'm the cute one on the right!

Little Maddie is doing really good. Her and Haley are playing more. She's not limping. I had her to the vet today for a follow up visit and she said that Maddie is healing nicely. She still has a lot of road rash on the back of her hind legs, so the vet gave me some special shampoo to put in the water and soak her legs. I ended up giving her a whole bath. Boy did she need it! She is such a sweet little dog. I'll have more pictures of her soon.
