Yeah! It's my birthday. So for the rest of this week, I am my guest.
And since I am the guest, I will be doing the book giveaways. Someday I will feature my own book, but, for now, I will be giving away some awesome author books to as many commenters as I can.
Those of you who have stopped in to read previous posts probably know I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to travel. This year's theme is: Out West.
Of course I said--YES! Let's go.
The winning photo.
Wow it was a really difficult choice!!
We began our trip in Tucson, Arizona. Ghost towns. Spicy, hot foods. Cacti. Desert.
Surprisingly there was a mountain in this flat terrain. Driving up the winding mountain road we saw the base littered with scrub plants. The middle level had great rock formations. The top, oddly enough, looked like a beautiful pine forest with rippling creeks...in the desert!
Driving north through the red rock formations in Utah to the northern tip of Montana is a tiny town called Drummond. Here I found the winning photo, only because I just didn't think you'd ever seen anything like this. A used cow lot. Across the street is a fifty's style burger joint with one hundred different types of burgers. Sometime yah just got to get off the main road to see the most amazing sights.

Speaking of birthday cake.
I am offering extra entry points to whoever can guess my favorite kind of birthday cake. I'll give you a hint my Grandma made this cake from scratch for each grandkid on their birthday.

At the to of my bucket list would b visiting our National Parks. I don't think I have been to any of them yet.
I will guess a chocolate cake with a white icing for the birthday cake.

The National Parks is a great choice. I recently saw a tour plan for all of them...to travel and visit each would only take one year. Yikes! A whole year! But imagine the sights you'd see on the way. I do like chocolate cake...but it is not the "chosen" one. Good guess.
Fall is number one on my list as well. You must live in a state where trees can show the shades of red, yellow, orange, like fireworks! And the crunch. What a wonderful sound. You must love to walk in the woods, too. Thanks for coming to my party!
All of the seasons are special but for sheer beauty, I would have to choose Fall.

I love fall, too. It's not too hot, not too cold, and definitely colorful.
