Welcome! I don’t know about you, but I love to look through antique stores and thrift shops! One of my blogging friends LOVES to do that as well. Donna from Funky Junk Interiors was visiting Las Vegas for the first time, so we had some fun. We spent the morning at the Neon Museum and then headed out to Hoover dam and then for a little shopping in Boulder City, NV. I was excited to show Donna some of my favorite shops. So we went Shopping for Antiques in Boulder City NV.
Happy Friday! It’s one of my favorite days of the week. I am excited to share Field Trip Friday, Union Station Los Angeles today. Hubby and I spent most of the week down in California. We visited with his 89 year old dad and some of our grandkiddos.
While were were there we took a day trip to Union Station, Los Angeles and Olvera Street.
I was glad I had my camera for pictures of the grandkiddos. THEN when I saw the architecture of the building, I KNEW YOU needed to see it, too.

Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone! It’s a special day here in the U.S. We pay homage and honor those that have served our country. And those that have served us in our lives.
I wrote the following post 5 years ago on our family blog. I was again reminded of it this year as Memorial Day is upon us. I learned about Memorial Day, love of country and loved ones that year. More than I had in my whole lifetime. I thought I would share it with you on my blog, today.

I was able to visit our daughter and her family ling in Oregon a few weeks ago. I thought you might like to see my visit to Oregon in a nutshell…
Have you ever been to Oregon? From what I hear, it rains all the time. I brought some sun with me and it only sprinkled my last day. All the other days, it was in the 80s so I was right at home.
Everywhere is SO green and blooming gorgeous flowers. This is our daughter’s front yard. (I must admit, I am a little jealous)
This picture is at the park less than a block away from her house.
On a walk one morning, I came across this rose garden. It is dedicated to one of the local men that has contributed much to their town. (More pictures of the rose garden on Friday)
My daughters all know what I like and so when I visit them, they take me to various places they know I will like. This is the widest, shortest river. It is in Lincoln City, near the ocean. Can you imagine being able to have a home on a river across from the ocean?? I would be in heaven.
While I was in Oregon I met up with my blogging friend, Sherry. She writes on Pondered Primed Perfected. We met up for sushi and she brought me a gift!! Seriously, one of the sweetest women I have ever met.
You can read how to make your own Beach Inspired Terrarium on Sherry’s Blog, Pondered Primed Perfected.
We ate at a very quaint sushi restaurant near by. We had a wonderful visit for hours getting to know each other, talking about life, and sharing our love of blogging. It was definitely a highlight of my visit to Oregon. (This pic was taken with my phone-sorry)
Besides seeing the grandkiddos, this was THE best!! The ocean is my refuge, my calm place in my mind and heart. So when my daughter took me there, I was awestruck. It was a beautiful, sunny day on the beach. Very windy, but sunny, none the less. We ordered food from Jay’s and ate at the beach. The best halibut fish and chips I have ever had. Melt in your mouth crispy, fresh fish. (No pics-we ate it too fast)
Can you believe the clear blue sky and water??
That’s my visit to Oregon in a nutshell. These were a few the highlights and my favorite scenes of the week-of course other than the grandkiddos.
Thanks for joining me on my visit to Oregon. If you haven’t been there-this is the perfect time of year to go. For Field Trip Friday I will take you to the rose garden and the peony farm. So fun!
