All Creatures...

Last night while I was perusing the thousands of options on Netflix, I found this jewel:

As an animal-loving kid, I had read bits and pieces of James Harriot's books and really enjoyed them. This BBC drama was filmed in the late 1970's and despite its age, I really enjoyed watching a few episodes last night! It's set in 1940's England and the quaint English countryside and the interesting rural characters were a great break from all the modern suspenseful stuff we find ourselves watching. Yes, things are cheesy, and yes it's outdated but I still loved it. It's slow, quirky and yet rather peaceful to watch. Give it a try sometime.

Believe it or not...

It has not rained in Seattle for over 7 days. In fact, it has been sunny. You know, blue skies, mountain views, etc. Don't believe everything you hear about this fair city!
Come visit!!

In November

In November 2008 the U.S. elected a new president, I turned 30 at Long Beach with my extended family and we were Thankful on the island in my brother's family wonderful new beach front cottage.  That was pretty much what happened in November 2008.
