Discover Your World

The quotation is from Buddha and reads:
Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it.
This photo was taken in the woods around my husband's hunting camp last weekend. I spent time there thinking about what I want to do with the rest of my life. I haven't reached any big conclusions yet, but it was a good start!

River Otter

There have been otters living by my husband's camp for some time now. They are pretty shy, but we are hoping to get photos of their pups some spring.

Black Bear

My husband has seen a few black bears near his camp. This photo was taken with the game cam early in the morning this September.

Enchanted

I haven't turned this photo into a layout for my husband's book yet, but I couldn't wait to show it to you! I might just frame it as-is and give it to him for Valentine's Day.

Camp Coyote #1

I've been working on some more pages for my husband's Camp Critters book.

Camp Coyote #2

I'm not sure if this is the same coyote that's in the photo above or not... This photo was taken last January and the one above was taken in March.

White-tailed Deer

A second page for my husband's "Camp Critter" book!

Did you know that deer shed their antlers annually, but you will rarely find them in the woods because they are eaten by porcupines and rabbits?

Muskrat

I've started working on a book featuring photos of animals from around my husband's hunting camp in Upper Michigan. Each page will include interesting facts about them. For example, did you know Muskrats can stay under water for up to 15 minutes to find food or evade predators?

Thanks for Stopping By

For me, scrapbooking is more than just a hobby. It's the best way I know how to keep my mind off my troubles and focus my attention on all the blessings I have in my life.

I used work at a newspaper in the graphics department full-time plus sell digital scrapbook kits on the side. That came to a halt when I was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition called a Chiari Malformation. I've had three surgeries so far that have only made my symptoms worse.

To try and make a long story short, I am no longer able to work and now use the limited time I'm able to spend on the computer to digital scrapbook and maintain my blog. I feel blessed that I am able to do this because it helps me focus on what is important in my life. Some days I think it's what helps me keep my sanity!
