Lost....


The word "Lost" can mean many things to many people...
You may have "A Moment Lost" as in missing that perfect moment of a sunset ...


You may have a lost friend - someone that you may have lost contact with over the years. (Try to locate them on "FaceBook" - You might be surprised who you might find there!)

There may be a "Lost Opportunity" -like that perfect job opening that you ignore for a few days too long - only to find that they "found someone" while you procrastinated.

. ..or what about a lost dog .. and the feeling you have in the pit of your stomach until that furry four-legged friend runs into your arms to give you many "dog-breath" kisses.

...and of course - there is the "Lost Love of Your Life" . You may never be sure when you meet "The One" - you may even ignore it when it is there...and sometimes you won't even know it is there until years later. Don't miss your "Lost Love" - Open your eyes - open your heart - take a chance...otherwise there is a good chance that you will be one of those who will realize it "years later"...and then it will be too late....

Oregon Attractions...

I was telling a friend about a few of Oregon's attractions when I decided it would be easier to produce a "google map" with the locations. It then dawned on me - others might like it also - so here it is! (Make sure you zoom out on the map...there are many 'attractions' all along the coast and also inland!)

Make sure you click on this link of the map- you will find descriptions and some links on many of the attractions listed.

Picasa Fun!

Have any of you used Picasa before? It is a free photo program that makes it simple for many people to "fix" their own mistakes - or you can even show your creative side.
This program will allow you to do many things- from straightening your picture to correcting the color or even making it a black & white!. Here is a picture I took but you will see a few minor changes along the way.













This program will do many things for you - including keeping track of any photo on your computer. You do NOT need to be an expert..I just want you to go and play!
