Georgetown, KY

A friend of mine had to see a specialist in Georgetown so after the appointment we thought we would take a look around. What a great little town. Wish they had better shopping.

Just a random house, no Christmas decorations, wonder why?

Forgot to mention, got a new Galaxy phone thought I would try it out. Did absolutely no photoshoping, wait I lied, did have to straighten a couple but that was it. Not a bad camera phone but will never take place of my Canon.

Grandchild #3, #2 & #1

Wow what kind of Grandmother am I when I didn't even bother to introduce the newest addition to our family. Meet Devyn and her first 4 months of life. She turns 5 months in just a few days.

Here she is again just a few days ago, just one big happy baby. God has truly blessed me and my family.
Sometimes though life can throw you a curve ball. Devyn was dealt with some heart issues and will be having heart surgery sometime close to her first birthday. We've been told that the surgery is common but nothing common about it when it happens to your family. You would never know anything was wrong with that big smile on her face.

If you have a moment a little prayer for Dev would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Remember my grandson? Born last January, most recent photo that I have. He is turning into quite the handsome little man...

... and while we are at it here is little Allie, just turned 4. OMG where did all the time go?

Rabbit Hash & Big Bone

As I am sure most of you are aware of, that is if you live in and around Rabbit Hash, the General Store burnt down last winter. A working general store since 1831 the tragedy hit hard for everyone. Money was raised and the work has begun to restore the historic building. To read about the tragedy and to see photos of the building while firefighters tried to put the fire out click on this link Rabbit Hash Fire 

 The closing hasn't stopped the local bikers from visiting one of their favorite spots. We visited the very last weekend before Rabbit Hash shut down for the winter.

We made a quick stop on our way out of Rabbit Hash and visited Big Bone Museum.  I'm embarrassed to admit this but I had no idea that Buffalo (which is what I have spent all my life calling them) are really Bison. Buffalo's are indigenous to Asia & Africa. Bison are indigenous to North America.  Go figure.

New Charity

This past summer has brought with it an enormous change in my life. Besides photography which has taken a back seat, my other passion has taken over and brought with it a need that had to be filled. Myself and 4 others who share my passion created NKY Urban Charities, we are a non-profit 501 (c) (3) charity dedicated to improving the lives of low income families & the homeless. We offer free clothing, support charitable agencies with our food program & help fight illiteracy through our free book giveaways.

From time to time I will post photos from our giveaways and food drives to give you an idea of how much of an impact NKYUC has had on local cities in Northern Kentucky.


This was our last big clothing giveaway of the season. Hundreds of people came out and were able to stock up on winter clothing. October 29th, 2016

So grateful for our volunteers. Would not have been able to do it without you.

Caesar Creek State Park, Ohio

Caught the end of fall foliage in Ohio, beautiful fall day.

Cincinnati Reds Firework Friday

Taking a necessary 21 month break from photographing the Cincinnati Reds Firework Friday it was actually nice to get back into it once again. My photography has taken a huge backseat to other parts of my life however, I am starting to slowly incorporate it back into my life.

San Diego Botanic Garden

I was in Southern California for 2 weeks in February, weather was totally awesome with temps in the 70's and 80's. It was hard coming back to Northern Kentucky but at least I didn't arrive home to find freezing temps. We decided to head to the San Diego Botanic Garden where I totally fell in love with many of the local flowers and plants. Here are but a few of the photos I took while at the garden.

 I'm not really a big fan of banana's but how much fun would it be to have them in your backyard?

 As much as I admired the mosaic statue I really couldn't justify the $32,000.00 price tag.

Rhinegeist Brewery Motorcycle Show

Took a short trip into Cincinnati and Over-The-Rhine to check out a motorcycle show.
