I'm sure that my mother would want you to know that she didn't name me Seagull, but I have always adored those ornery beach critters, so it seemed an appropriate name to take for my online activities!

Below you will find several pictures of things and people that are meaningful in my life.

Thanks for stopping by and I am glad to show and tell you a bit about myself on this page!
On the left is a picture of me with two of my pets. Since I don't have any "real" kids, my furkids are an important part of my life. I also collect and paint carousel horses, one small one of which you can see in the background.
Horses have always been an important part of my life and my livelihood. I am a formal middle school teacher who started out as a barn manager and am now a riding instructor. The picture above was taken when I lived in North Carolina and is of myself and my favorite horse, Jethro.
While I love all my furkids, this little naughty girl on the left holds a special place in my heart. This is Sahara who has been the star of my Solve a Mystery pages (which will return in the future!) She is a Bengal cat and is Miss Personality Plus!
I have always loved the beach, hence my great love for seagulls. They also hold a spiritual meaning for me and whenever I see one, I feel that God is reminding me that all will be well. I was born in Maryland and currently reside here, but I have also lived in Virginia, Tennessee , and North Carolina.
The wonderful man in the photo above is my fantastic hubby, Bill. We are best friends and have a wonderful relationship. The pretty little lady pictured with him is one of our darling Shelties, Abby.
I love all sports but am a big fan of football and boxing. If I am watching tv, it's a sure bet that it is some athletic event!
