A bunch of local log truckers got together to do a charity run for a dying friend. The best part was that Toad got to drive his truck in to town-at the head of the 28 truck convoy!
I'm proud to say that I was a part of it. With the donations from the loads, a free will offering afterwards and a charity auction we raised $28 000 for his family!
Day 4 shows the variety of “play” relaxation activities I totally enjoy - variations of childhood activities: draw; paint; read; see; knit; make up stories, walk, etc.

A Maggie Holmes scraplift from the Kelly P Sketchbook class.
I tried to pick bright summery feminine papers and embellishments. i am thrilled that i was able to do a decent job of lifting Maggies style that uses lots of stitching with no real stitching....lol
Perhaps not a landmark in the strictest sense of the word, but a much anticipated part of our Reunion Experience. 😊
LOCH LOMOND @ CAMERON HOUSE HOTEL
The flights depart from the pontoon in front of the hotel reception - a world class location.
The world-renowned bonnie banks of Loch Lomond conjure images of a majestic world of heather-dappled glens and roaring open fires. What better place to watch the theatre of the Highlands unfold than from Cameron House. Find your true love here.
Whether it be fine dining, loch cruises, championship standard golf, spa breaks or simply chilling out with your new favourite 20 year old single malt, Cameron House on Loch Lomond may soon become a true love of yours.
It’s not just about the timeless splendour. Cameron House is legendary Scottish hospitality at it’s very finest and very warmest. There’ll always be someone on hand to impart age-old tales of clansmen or point you in the right direction in choosing the best red to go with your steak.
Choose from the fine dining at the award winning Michelin Star Martin Wishart Restaurant, the Cameron Grill or the Boathouse Restaurant at the marina.
Cameron House is located on top of the Highland Boundary fault that runs through Scotland - to the south are the lowlands and to the North the Highlands - 170 miles of Lochs, Glens and Mountains running all the way to the north coast.
The ideal location for a stay if you are on your way North on holiday or on your return home. Cameron House is also the ideal base for the west coast of Scotland from Argyll & Bute to the Isle of Skye with the airport and the City of Glasgow just thirty minutes drive away. (That`s the hard sell over..lol !)

Today's prompt sent me looking for a recent favorite photo. I love seeing the kids "reading." I used a Cathy Z Template (#28) and the papers and word art are Ali Edwards.

I recently speculated as to whether the small rusty ship in the foreground was used to periodically remove scrap. That turned out to be a dredger and is absolutely dwarfed by the ship which does.
Talis was built in 1992 in Germany. She is operated by WE-Ships who are based in Istanbul. She is 81.8m in length and draws around 4.6m empty, so would be sitting on the mud here. She can carry up to 106,000 tons.
saw a cool ad in a seventeen mag and saved it. wasn't sure what to do with these pics, but i think this was a great idea...i may need to scraplift myself. easy and uses lots of paper...my fave.
Temelec (Sonoma County), CA
3/20/17
For those that don’t know, the Curotto family owns Sonoma Garbage Collectors and they made The Curotto Can for their own front loaders and eventually sold Curotto Cans to Waste Haulers throughout North America.
After many years of wanting to see Sonoma Garbage Collectors fleet in person, I finally had an opportunity to spend a day in Sonoma and I took advantage of it. I arrived in San Francisco early in the morning, grabbed a rental car and drove immediately towards Sonoma. I knew Sonoma Garbage Collectors also operates in Temelec which is before Sonoma, so I stopped there first and before I could turn left into Temelec I saw a Sonoma Garbage Collectors Autocar Wittke with of course a Curotto Can. I met Raul driving the Diesel Autocar Wittke Curotto Can, Raul is a great driver and operates the Curotto Can like a professional. The Wittke sounded absolutely amazing and still operated great for being over 10 years old. There were several 32 gallon carts in Temelec and the Curotto Can would often go 4 blocks without being emptied into the hopper.
I found a brand new yellow Curotto Can on the side of the road in Temelec. It looked great and it had all the new features that the Dedicated Curotto Can has. The new yellow Curotto Can belongs to Sonoma Garbage Collectors new Autocar Heil Freedom which finished before 10am (they start around 4:00-5:00am) because it needed some maintenance. Later on, I went to their yard and saw their 1998 commercial Bridgeport Front Loader parked out front. Eventually I found Raul returning to the yard in the Wittke. The route manager Matt also arrived to the yard around the same time in the low entry Bridgeport. Matt just finished a commercial CRV Glass recycle route and he was kind enough to start up the Bridgeport and gave me a tour of the yard.
A huge Thank you to the Wittke driver Raul, who is an efficient and nice driver. The route manager Matt, for operating the Bridgeport and giving me a yard tour. And thank you John Curotto for running such a great fleet and producing great innovations for the waste industry. I have been a huge Curotto Can fan since I first saw one on my street in 2001 and although I enjoy all refuse trucks, Front Loaders with Curotto Cans are my favorite.
Please make sure you watch the entire video so can see the new Sonoma Curotto Can detached from the new Heil. Along with a commercial and residential (with a custom Curotto Can) Bridgeport and the Curotto Can bone yard. Also check out my pictures on Flickr. The pictures include: the new Heil, older Curotto Cans in the boneyard including the Scalin Eagle, a cart from H&C Disposal from Los Angeles and a Curotto Can getting worked on outside the shop.
What I want to say right now - the idea came to me as soon as I read it and then I nearly ran out of time to do it.
I had this idea in my head, and the grid wouldn't work with 31 layouts, so I decided to go with it and use the BW theme for the title/journaling/embellishments. This has been such a great experience! I'll scrap more efficiently in a style I like and I won't buy a bunch of stuff I don't use. It will also be a long time until I cut out 30 tiny photos again...maybe October?
TFL and have a great Memorial Day!
