- About Me:
- I am a mother and grandmother..whose a little bit housebound, love to do digital artwork and watch the animal cams, lover of cats and wildlife, enjoy cooking, and eating :)
I love making new friends and talking to friends online.. love to travel although I haven't been able to for awhile.. My favorite trip was to Mississiippi in 2003 when I stayed for 2 weeks with my good friend Ken and his wife.. and got to meet another of my online friends Wolfdance who lived nearby.
I Love to shop, grow flowers and watch animal shows on TV My favorite things, cats, grandkids, flowers and art.
My close friends call me Yote.. I guess because of my online name which they associate with Wile E coyote.. who just happens to be my favorite cartoon character :)
I've been mostly happily married to the same man for 31 years.. two children, one deceased and one very tall young man who still lilves at home.. any takers?... One step daughter whom I raised... one granson.. and a passle of cats.. I love them.. Over the years we have had cats, dogs, hermit crabs, and fish as pets..
My son and I love dinosaurs and spent a lot of time looking for fossils.. He now works in a radio station as assistant news director. My hubby works for a local grocery store.. When I worked I was a floral designer. I still dabble on occasion in floral arranging.. I've done several weddings for friends over the past 25 or so years.
I owe what I am today to my heros in life.. my parents and grandparents.. My mother was very strong, crafty, and a great cook.. Dad was funny and a jokester, a great story teller... My grandfather was a wonderful cook and gardener.. grandma worked for a living all her life could sew and knit and tat with the best of them.
My great grandmother I was lucky to have for 20 years of my life, taught me to bake bread, raise flowers, can food and laugh.. I adored her. She told me: life stinks, smiles make it smell better, so smile.. alot... She also told me: Love comes where its found even if its under a horse trud.. You gotta admit she had a way with words.
My best memories come from years of being with my family, on holidays and vacations, and just basically everyday life..
As a youngster I was lucky enough to have a horse.. his name was bill and the stories I could tell you abot this horse LOL, well you will just have to read them for yourself at my personal website which you can find a link to on my graphic site.
NOTE: if my site doesn't load immediately just refresh the page and it will load. :) and be sure to check out the link to my other personal site.

ILP Membership Scheme
I want to walk into the office of the CEO of Mpumalanga Parks Board next week, armed with your support and confirm our help to prevent senseless killings of wild unfenced Leopards throughout the province.
Next year will be our ten year anniversary and the biggest yet for the ILP. Provincial authorities have no funds or people to tackle the issues at hand and have asked for our help. We must act now to conserve the dwindling leopard population. Time is slipping away, but we need funds to tackle the problems and mobilise a team. That is why we have put together a membership scheme. Please make a small donation (your choice, but please don't hold back), and become a member of the ILP. You'll receive regular updates from the front line of wildlife conservation and a voucher worth $380 which you can redeem against a 2010 Wildlife Safari with On Track Safaris.
Donations can be made by credit card via our UK Representatives Research Cam www.researchcam.com. All funds raised go to the ILP.

Thanks in advance

Kevin offers his support
We received a boost this week when large carnivore behaviour specialist Kevin Richardson agreed to work more closely with the ILP, offering his skills and expert knowledge to assist us with upcoming projects. As most of you will know, Kevin has been associated with the ILP for many years, since he presented In Search of a Legend - Black Leopard. After hearing of our busy schedule and need for more assistance, Kevin was quick to offer his support and expertise to the ILP team. He brings a unique insight into the behaviour of carnivores, which will dovetail well with our operations in 2010.
We face some huge challenges next year and need more support both from experts and research volunteers. Let me know if you can help.

Fantastic artwork. Coming from someone who can't draw a straight line with a ruler, and has no creative bones in her body! It's 1:30 a.m. in western Canada where I am now, so will be coming back to your site more and more to see your incredible work! Thanks for sharing. Lynda
I'll miss all that when they get older!
