Wow! Summer Vacation is Almost Over!

Dr. Smith in Ghost in Space.

My Mom in Yosemite.

I got five weeks off from school. Now, this Monday school starts again. I am not ready for it. Oh well, that is the way of life!

We went camping last week. That was fun. Our van broke down. But we got some assistance from a very nice Park Ranger. He helped us to get our gear together so we would be safely near where our van would be worked on. Next year, we are taking 2 vehicals. It was no fun being stuck up on a remote road with a broken down van. It took two days to get it fixed.

Still watching my favorite T.V. programs on DVD....... Lost in Space, Star Trek tos, Star Trek tng, Columbo, Wild Wild West, and Murder She Wrote. But I love that Lost in Space, and Star Trek tos the best.

Monty My Love

My dog Monty. It is hard to get him to sit still long enough for me to get his picture, except when he is sleeping. He can be a handful. He is almost blind in one eye, having had a detached retina. He had surgery twice on the eye, and has to have eye drops in it for the rest of his doggy life.



Dr. Smith and the Magic Mirror. He is so in love with riches that he will do anything to get them.

Another Magic Mirror picture. I love it when Zachary Smith is interacting with either Will or Penny. Here he and Penny are both inside the mirror. At first he thinks what is happening in the mirror is all his own imagination. I am sure the man who develops my pictures for me must think I am obsessed with Lost in Space. If it's not Lost in Space, then it is Angwin where we take our walks. And then there are the pictures of my dog and my daughter Sarah.

A Friend

Just a watercolor I did the other day. I never am totally happy with what I do, but I still keep on doing it. Something about doing art work. If I don't do art in any day I feel like the day was wasted.

It was our last day of school today. Some of those kids graduating (8th grade) gave the teachers in our classroom presents. I told one young lady that I felt like she should be getting the presents. Some of these kids I may never see again, others I will see at summer school.

A Favorite Friend Here

He is a great friend, and is great fun! He loves me all the time. He is patient when I clip his fur, and when we give him a bath. He is a big brother and watches over his friends (the cats). He knows how to get what he wants by just staring at you... his eyes say, "walk me now."

My daughter is my other best friend. She is great to be around.

Early Marilyn Monroe

This is one picture I find so fascinating, I found it on the web sometime back. Of course everything about Marilyn Monroe I found fascinating. I wish I could have known this lady. My daughter said, you called her lady. I am not sure what to think. Years ago, I used to collect every book and picture I could find on her.

Magic Mirror

I always sympathized with Penny in this episode. Judy was rather insensitive and in this scene is attempting to make it up.

This is one of my favorite episodes of Lost in Space. I have thought, how fun it would be to go into another dimension. On second thought, could be also scary. Michael J. Pollard is really an interesting character in this.

The Junkyard of Space

Too bad Lost in Space ended up in The Junkyard of Space. Rather, I think it was CBS not understanding what kind of stories people wanted. Such a waste of potential. Nevertheless, it was, and still is one of my favorite T.V. programs.
