I never planned to have a little dog... but due to a penchant for Mexican food, and a certain restaurant, we ended up with a pekingese. We added her to our formidable menagerie (Fur, fins, and feathers) but she quickly stole our hearts and became queen of the roost.

Time has passed, and so has Molly. The current ruler of the house is Pikachu. She had a couple years with Molly, learning the ropes. This year, we added Da Nugget. She is trying hard to dethrone Chu, but for now remains the Princess.

Photography has been a hobby for a long time, although in fits and starts. My first camera was obtained by saving some sort of box tops... 50 years ago... then the summer vacation that I took 20 rolls of 126 film... My birthday present that year? Mom and Dad paid for the developing. They probably wish digital was available back then.
