Penny here! Mom says she has a whole bunch of camping pictures to sort through and she doesn’t have time to post about my day. So I’ll just do it myself. After all, I am the brilliant, …| Change Is Hard
From a People Magazine post – so you have to take it with a grain of salt… The hosts of four HGTV programs announced on Instagram that their shows had allegedly been canceled Bargain Bl…| Change Is Hard
Hi, hi, hi, HI Everybody!! It’s me, Penny! Me just before our walk. I think they do bonfires at this park sometimes. Mom was talking about Walktober this week, and I wanted to know what it wa…| Change Is Hard
Regardless of your politics, if you’d met him, you’d have liked him. Messages of love and loss are coming from across the country after Rep Connolly’s death yesterday. Most of the…| Change Is Hard

You haven’t heard from me in awhile, but there’s a very good reason. It was the moon’s fault. You remember back a couple three weeks when we enjoyed the lunar eclipse? Well you kn…| Change Is Hard
Hi everybody, Penny here. Well. I ask you….do I LOOK like I have a temper? Mom and daddy say that it’s time that I stop all my temper tantrums at home and the barking and lunging at dog…| Change Is Hard
Where to go for my Walktober, where to go? It’s been weighing on my mind. I’ve done so many, taken you to visit all my local favorites, some of them multiple times. You and I have walke…| Change Is Hard
Well, it’s that time of year again…time to dust off the ole walking shoes, grab your phone or your camera (or both!) and head out to find something interesting or boring, pretty or mund…| Change Is Hard

I try very hard to not get political here or on any social media. But these last couple of weeks have been overwhelming and I’ve been feeling sad and hopeless. Perhaps you’ve been feeli…| Change Is Hard
Ten days ago I took you with me while I searched for the redheaded woodpecker. And as you saw, we found the noisy little guy almost right away! So did we turn around and go home, having achieved ou…| Change Is Hard
It’s been awhile, a really long while, since I’ve been out to Kensington to feed the birds. A photographer friend and I have been talking about it for what feels forever – –…| Change Is Hard
I’m in another one of my funky, can’t figure out how to do stuff, phases. You know how it is (or maybe you don’t), you’re bee-bopping along doing stuff you’ve always d…| Change Is Hard
We have been so lucky, up here in Michigan, (and sometimes all the way down to Georgia!) to be able to see the Northern Lights quite frequently this past summer and into fall. May 2024, somewhere i…| Change Is Hard
Tonight I was sorting through the pictures from my drive home from Alabama. I liked so many of them I feel like I need to share some of them with you. So…here’s the end of my vacation, …| Change Is Hard
Hey there, it’s me, Penny. See, it all started yesterday when my mom said we were going on a ‘venture. I could hardly wait. Let’s go mom! She said in order to get ready for this &…| Change Is Hard
Penny has been spoiled and so have her mom and dad. When we’ve needed her to be somewhere besides our house during the last almost two years, we’ve been able to deposit her back with he…| Change Is Hard
