#DailyPictureTheme #Churn
The seagulls always know when the fishing boats go out, they churn up the really good snacks in Monterey Bay. (May 5, 2014 vacation)

Two small commercial fishing boats with nets churning up fish in Monterey Bay. Seagulls hover and swarm the nets looking for free snacks. Clear blue skies, deep blue water. A good morning to fish.

#DailyPictureTheme #Pry
We use this little metal tool to pry the lid of paint cans open. It's called a paint key or paint can opener. When we can't find one of the many we have, we use a flathead screwdriver to pry open the can. The other end is used pry the metal cap off a beer or soda bottle. 🍻

Metal.paint can lid opener, taped with blue tape to several wooden paint stir sticks, sitting top of 2 pain cans. Two other paint cans sit behind the first two.

#DailyPictureTheme #Anchor
Our Kemore stand up freezer in our garage, bought 25 years ago at Sears, an anchor store at the mall, 1 of 12 remaining Sears in the U.S. today. It still works. We defrost it manually yearly. Not a great pic, but it shows its age both in style & yellowing at the handle.

#DailyPictureTheme #Stream

While everyone else is watching the Superbowl, I'm happy to continue to stream the ridiculous but somehow entertaining "Riverdale" series - a real life take on comic book characters from "Archie" - on Netflix and listen to my dog snore 😴 Go Niners - lol!

#DailyPictureTheme #Lost As a young child, I read anything with print - cereal boxes, comics, newspapers. I loved my library. Books are & always have been my escape. I get lost in books. All genres. Mostly SciFi. My DIL passed my current read to me when she finished it. 👇️ #BooksOfSpoutible

Jacket of current book I'm reading - "The Measure" by Nikki Erlick

My girls. Their bond is so pure - unconditional, warm, true. Nearly always together, and always touching eachother, a reassurance of that bond. 💗

#DailyPictureTheme #Surf
Bailey's 1st Christmas, she showed us she was tall enough to table & counter surf. One day she proudly walked by us carrying a whole bagged chicken we had defrosting in a bowl in the sink. 😳 We resorted to using baby gates to keep her out of the kitchen. #DogsOfSpoutible

Anyone else still have any of these? Welch's Grape Jelly glass, featuring Tom & Jerry. This is the last of ours, we had several when our boys were very young.
Our grands use it now when they visit.

#DailyPictureTheme #Brave

This brave little guy stared me down while I was enjoying the sunset from our backyard a few days ago. I think he was pissed I was standing so close to the fence, his usual highway from yard to yard. He wouldn't even crack a smile for me. 🐿

Brown squirrel sitting still on top of fence, staring at me. There are bare fruit tree limbs behind it, as well the neighbor's dark gray roof beyond the tree limbs and a fading blue sky.

#DailyPictureTheme #Bold

This bold little black bird swooped down & pecked at my head or tried to land on it while we were walking on Cannery Row in Monterey - it hurt! Hahaha! Most likely protecting a nest, or protesting all the people walking along. Bold indeed!

Sun beginning to set. A mostly clear blue sky, a bright yellow light shining on the horizon illumating a sheer faint line of clouds, just over the top of the fence in our backyard. Distant trees and a few power lines in neighboring yards.

#DailyPictureTheme #Humour

Our little schipperke Cody back in the day. He sure kept us on our toes, living up to the nickname "devil dog" - even tho he's been gone since 2009, this picture of him guarding our Christmas presents still makes us laugh every year!

#DailyPictureTheme #Hike
Quite the hike down and the the climb back up (down was way easier!) to/from the lighthouse at Point Reyes. Lots of people enjoying (and maybe wondering why they choose to do it!) the day back on July 9, 2011. I stayed up top and took a lot of great pictures that day.

Looking down at the long steep 300 step stairway leading down to the Point Reyes Lighthouse and Station House, with many people walking down/up the stairway, and resting on the platforms. The lighthouse is barely visible in the fog on a summer day in July 2011. To the right, rocky cliffs and wildflowers, scrub bushes and rough waves of the Pacific Ocean. To the left, the large rocky hillside pushes up with more green scrub bushes and fewer wildflowers.

From a day trip to Point Reyes Lighthouse July 2011. There's always more to see than just the main attraction. Take in the whole scene, then look closer at the world around you. 💓

#DailyPictureTheme #Courage
Every 6 months or so, I truly have to muster up the courage to visit my dentist for a checkup or cleaning. This is me some years ago, waiting for the nitrous to kick in so my anxiety doesn't spike. I know I'm not alone in this 😟 I sent this pic to my family.
