MY CATS

Pippi came to us as a 10 month old filled with hundreds of fleas.  He had been living with a lot of cats and dogs.  He was very docile and just a great kitty.  He lived 16 years!

ALASKA CRUISE 2011

I have finally discovered why my Alaska pictures have a blue tinge.  The last pictures I took before our trip were at church.  I had set the camera for the lighting in the sanctuary and forgot to set it back to natural lighting.  Grrrr.  I guess we will have to go again to get some good pics!

On the Rhapsody of the Seas, we sailed from Seattle to Juneau, Skagway, Tracy Arm Fjord, Victoria, Canada and back to Seattle.

At every port the crew was working on the ship. Here they seem to be cleaning it.

Leaving Juneau

Each evening our stateroom was made ready for night and an animal appeared on our bed. A different animal each night!
