Elbow Deep in Earth: A Week in Paradise: Vieques, Puerto Rico - Traveling there
http://elbowdeepinearth.blogspot.com/2015/02/a-week-in-paradise-vieques-puerto-rico.html
Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Sunday, February 15, 2015. A Week in Paradise: Vieques, Puerto Rico - Traveling there. The evening before we left, we dropped our dogs off to my mother so she could make sure they were looked after while we were away. Our dogs love having visits with her and her animals, so it works out well. Our first stop was in New York, at JFK airport, then we made our way to San Juan. There, we walked for what seemed like forever to the very end of the airport, where we found...

Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Wednesday, February 18, 2015. A Week in Paradise: Vieques, Puerto Rico - Day 2. I noticed this great old sign with the original beach names and the new ones assigned by the NAVY during their presence. After a successful mini-shopping trip, we headed west to start a little geocaching adventure. There were 11 caches on the island and we (at least me! We couldn't help but giggle as the group took turns taking pictures of one another, then pulled out and started using a s...

Elbow Deep in Earth: A Week in Paradise: Vieques, Puerto Rico - Day 1
http://elbowdeepinearth.blogspot.com/2015/02/a-week-in-paradise-vieques-puerto-rico_6.html
Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Monday, February 16, 2015. A Week in Paradise: Vieques, Puerto Rico - Day 1. Since Shane's dad passed away, we have repeatedly seen small sections of rainbow in the sky, at various levels, and each time it reminds us of him. The "why" is a story for another time, but the point is, this little bright spot felt like a smile of love and approval from him, and that warmed our hearts. She told us about a few "must see" things and also warned of places she preferred we not ...

Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Thursday, October 11, 2012. Road Trip to Virginia Day 2 - The Blue Ridge Parkway. August 2, 2012. As we "gathered our things" ( ahem. We headed for the Blue Ridge Parkway, which is a magnificent scenic byway that should be on everyone's bucket list. For more information on the Parkway, check out all Wikipedia has to say here. The byway has its own site also: www.blueridgeparkway.org/. The lake at Peaks of Otter. One of the Peaks. There was a neat stop on the way with ...

Elbow Deep in Earth: The $613.00 Chocolate Bar
http://elbowdeepinearth.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-61300-chocolate-bar.html
Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Thursday, January 23, 2014. The $613.00 Chocolate Bar. While traveling in Texas last week, I stayed at the cutest little boutique hotel. There weren't many decent choices for lodging, aside from pricey Bed and Breakfast spots. When I found The Hangar (check it out here. I was thrilled by the price and the World War two themed decor and overall style of the accommodations. I had the bite or two I so desired and wrapped it up in its wrapper. It came home with me and...

Elbow Deep in Earth: Zilke Vegetable Farm Stand
http://elbowdeepinearth.blogspot.com/2011/10/zilke-vegetable-farm-stand.html
Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Monday, October 10, 2011. Zilke Vegetable Farm Stand. This time of year, the colors of the produce are enchanting. Everything is so vivid and vibrant, like a beautiful prelude to the finale of autumnal colors. Crisp green, firey red, bright orange and multiple hues of yellow peppers made for striking displays. Their aroma made me want to get cooking as soon as I got home! Locally grown seeded watermelon. I spent Saturday and Sunday of the weekend toiling away in the k...

http://elbowdeepinearth.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Sunday, April 5, 2015. A Week in Paradise: Vieques, Puerto Rico - Day 4. When we arrived, we found a small, unassuming beach with lots of teeny tiny bits of glass, and seemingly very few sizable pieces to pick up. I was up for the challenge and any associated adventure though. A sweet little tabby cat greeted us with rubs and purrs, as I imagine he greets all visitors. Links to this post. A Week in Paradise: Vieques, Puerto Rico - Day 3. Links to this post. Saturday, ...

Elbow Deep in Earth: Be nice. Just do it.
http://elbowdeepinearth.blogspot.com/2013/09/be-nice-just-do-it.html
Elbow Deep in Earth. A bit about us. Friday, September 20, 2013. Be nice. Just do it. Me, being me, I walked over and offered to help. I called Shane and asked him to check the trunk of the car for a quart jar before he came in to get me and my sewing machine. I know it sounds silly, but there is always a chance there are jars in my car. On this occasion, there was not. The fun part of the story is WHY this young man wanted the jar. I got curious again recently about their situation and sent him a note t...
