All photos in this area of my Wiki page are or were taken by me or my husband from 2005 forward, as such they are copyrighted to us and not available for use by another, unless cleared for specific use for a specified time frame.

I periodically add pics from the show when I'm discussing a topic that's related to it. All credit for those goes to the fine men and women who shot them and the stars who so obilingly posed for them. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen for working so hard to bring us such an excellent show each week.

Here are few of my more recent pics. Enjoy, everyone.




08/10/09

BOO!!! My new avatar is the real me you'd meet if we sat down for tea or Starbucks somewhere. I figured it was time to come out of hiding and declare myself. Hope I didn't frighten you too badly. Hehehe :)

================================================================= (05/10/08) I'm still hard at work, sisters, so I'll likely be making weekly updates until I'm furloughed some time next month. I'm still editing my latest batches of pics, too, so they won't be making an appearance until mid-June at the earliest. The book will not be going out at month's end as I'd hoped, working hard tends to fry the brain and block creativity more than I thought it would do. I'm still writing it, of course, but the characters aren't being as cooperative as they are when I'm better rested.

(04/18/08) As anyone visiting here can see from my avatar, Alexx is my fave besides Horatio. It's a real shame she's soon departing the team, as she's been the stablizing factor on the show. It's nice to see her smiling, too, since she's usually knee-deep in bodies and their effluvea. May she be belssed with continued success in whatever endeavors she's involved after CSI Miami We'll miss you, Khandi, so visit often! As with life, things change; people move onto better things; and we adjust. If any of the producers visit these profiles, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE find another talented woman to be the ME on CSIM! The LAST thing the show needs is another man in a position of power and grave responsibility.
It's good to see you laugh, Alexx, but that orange HAS GOT TO GO! The brown needs work, too.

(05/01/08)

It's hard to believe that another month has passed so quickly. I'm still hard at work at my job, processing and entering tax forms from my fellow taxpayers. I hope that all is well with most of you. T, I'm now more than a tad concerned for you and your latest addition. I haven't heard from you in some time and need to know how things are going with you.

Maggie, if you're able to get over here to read this, my heart and prayers are with you during this latest battle with your condition. I hope that you're soon back online and chatting like crazy; but if God has other plans, I understand that, too.



(04/26/08)

I took this beauty BEFORE my walks with Carmelita, some time during the month of February last year. God has an awesome creative hand, doesn't He? Check out the latest of my photo books in the gallery above for more of these gorgeous pics.



(04/04/08) The pneumonia had me down for awhile, 3 weeks to be precise, but I'm all better now. Still a bit rheumy, but it goes with having asthma, so I'm used to it now. How are things with all of you? Just drop a PM in the electronic wilderness and I'll answer within a couple of days.

Layla, I don't know which of my three sites you visit most frequently, so I'll hit at least the best two with a kind word for you. Your support during my prolonged battles with illnesses have kept me pumped up and helped me heal much faster than would otherwise have been the case.

That goes for all the ladies I've befriended here, as well. I reached out and y'all reached back. I haven't had many 'downer' days since then. It's absolutely awesome! Especially for someone who's normally a shy guy with people she's not had the pleasure of meeting face to face.

Maggie, I know you're aliing now. I'm sorry that you're feeling so bad. If I could hug you, I would (XXXXXX) as big as the world. You're a wonderful person and an even better friend. Pinky, your insights are AWESOME. Thanks for the gorgeous pics on CSI Favorites. I'm sure they'll be as helpful to others in need of a break as they are to me. I'll soon add a few more of my own to my profile at CSI-F, so keep an eye peeled. LOL:)

T, there's nothing more to be said, you're the greatest Mod around, patiently guiding your protege thru the process as needed without being too fussy. Have you thought of going into teaching? It's never too late to mentor a child, or a cat. Chuckle, chuckle.

Patty, you don't check in often, but I'm sure it's your duties that prevent a more frequent PM. Keep up the great work! And thank your teammates for all of us, as well. It's a wonderful site filled with great things for everyone, even those who aren't necessarily the CSI family's greatest fans. I gave creating a masthead a try, but will need further training in photo manipulation before I'll show even a shred of the talent that Vicki, Pinky, and Tanya shower upon us every time they edit a page on the Wiki.

God keep you all in good health, high spirits, and delightful companions for as long as you live. Melody, your poems are funny, warm, and timely. I'm actually somewhat better with prose than with verse, so my own work needs a bit of polishing at times. I've been busy even while ill, trying to finish off the stories I've started and come up with more. I hope they bring you pleasure, as that's my ambition.



(03/29/08)

Well, guys and dolls, it's official. AllFair4H has pneumonia. I saw my family doc yesterday, date below, and he confirmed my suspicions. He prescribed Biaxin, which should knock the sucker down very quickly. I've been in and out, but mostly out cold trying to beat this monster.

The weather's turned rainy and cold again, which isn't helping matters. However, Steph, the moisture will be great for the flowers. I'll get as many pics of those as possible without violating trespassing laws! LOL:) So, they might be a tad in the distance instead of closeups, as I want them to be.

Tanya and sisters, I'll beat this, as I've done several times before, but it will take a while. Your prayers and kind thoughts are greatly appreciated. In the meantime, I'll likely be in and out at irregular intervals, between naps and such LOL:)

I'll keep in touch thru this profile and the one on CSI Favorites, too. Then everyone will know what's up with me. I'm not going to post pics for awhile, because it takes too long on this machine and I need my rest.

Patrick, my hubby and the taker of these pics, would be appalled that I let you see our messy yard. But life is what it is, so I don't feel as shy about sharing this aspect of it as he does. The inside of my mind is almost as messy and my environs reflect that turmoil.

(03/24/08)

I've decided to leave the life updates and other personal news for my profile and pic pages on the CSI Favorites site. If you're keeping apprized of m circumstances, firstly I thank you for your interest; and secondly here is the address if you want to check it out.

I established the CSI Favorites Wiki last week so we sisters and brethren could talk about ANYTHING our hearts desire without derailing the various threads on this Wiki. There are pages for faves, videos, pics, and more; plus a link to create your own pages when you're of a mind to do so. The address is:

http://all3showson1wiki.wetpaint.com

If you're interested in checking it out. Patty, feel free to drop in whenever you're between your various assignments on this site. It's a welcom relief to have someone else doing the editing for a change. LOL :)

(03/18/08)

Here are some pics from previous constitutionals. Having a young dog makes things really exciting, let me tell you! LOL ;) I'm afraid that most of today's shots were either blurry or otherwise unacceptable for publication here.

This is one of my very fave spots on my usual walk in the mornings. Steph, please let me know if you like rocks as well as flowers. I'll need to get a MUCH better camera with a macro and a micro lens before I can get the full beauty of the tiny orchids that grow here in the spring and summer months. Sorry about that.


I've called this "Around the Bend" because I'm going around a cool bend at a place that I call Horseshoe Falls, because it's shaped like a horseshoe. This was actually taken last summer around June, long after the water had vanished from the hills.

(03/12/08)

Here we go again! I went for another of my perambulations today. I hope that you enjoy viewing them as much as I enjoyed taking them!

Cool and inviting, isn't it?
Green and Silver are a lovely combo, especially in the spring.

Ain't she sweet? Pretty little poser, huh? She's such a doll, you just wanna kiss her. LOL. ;) She gives the absolute best puppy hugs and kisses, too.

I'm old, but I'm cute, aren't I?
Buggs and Carmelita are best of buddies, even though they're at least two decades apart in age.
That's it for today, folks. I'll upload more when I've edited them down to size.

(03/09/08)

Here are more. I had to crop them a bit so they'd fit into this site's parameters. Enjoy, there's sun, sky, and puppy pics today. Oh, and a few felines, as well. LOL. :)


Happy Cat is the big, black guy with the white smile on his face. Emma is his girlfriend of several years now. They teamed up when she first came to our house and haven't parted company since then. LOL. The second shot is one of the best of my new puppy I've taken yet. Isn't she sweet?



You sisters get a twofer with these! A shot of me with my sweet little girl and a pic of water actually flowing in my neck of the woods. For most of the year here, it's dry as an old bone; this year's heavy snows up north should provide lots of great water shots as the seasons progress. LOL :) Mags, this is 4 U. Hope you enjoy them. The shot of me and the pup was taken by my hubby of 23 years, Pat, during our most recent walk together.

(03/08/08)

I can't help it! I've got a gazillion pics of the area around my house and want to share as many as possible with my new friends!






(03/06/08)

Mags, T, and gals:

Here are some more pics. They're of the area around my home. They're somewhat older than the ones below, but beautiful nonetheless.

These stones and the little tree are on the path down the falls, which I'll insert at a later time. I need to get some work done around the house }{(I'm positive you ALL know that that means, LOL :)} I walk when the mood strikes, and now have a little pal to take as my coyote catcher (chuckle, chuckle).


This is the stand of trees I pass on my daily walks with Carmelita. I took this pic ini 2005, long before she came into my life. I seem to have a fascination for fog, sun, and scenery. LOL. Mags, I hope you enjoy these. I know that I enjoyed taking them.

Sometimes we go down the path near it, and sometimes we go further down and come UP it instead. It's about an 8 percent grade, so it's a great workout for my glutes and quads. LOL. Enjoy these and I'll add more as time and space permit.


The trickle of water falls over the face of my ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE subject. You'll see dozens of pics of the place, since I'm a true hydrophile (that's water nut to most of us). I have a few great ones of The Devil's Staircase that I KNOW you'll love, Mags. You'll see why I call it that when I get the chance to post them.


(03/03/08)

Here are some of the pics I promised last weekend. I finally got out the old digital camera and got a few of me, hubby, and our beloved Carmelita. She is just so darned cute! LOL.
The rather elderly looking gent sitting next to us is Buggs. He's my brother-in-law's dog and has lived with us for some time now. (03/23/08)

Yes the lady in pink is All Fair for H. Hubby's the lump on the couch to your left. I'll post more pics, hopefully of better quality, as time and space permit. In the meanwhile, I hope that you'll enjoy these. It's a great site, and I've made many friends. T and crew, please feel free to tell me what you think of these. I'm sure it'll be good news. LOL.

(02/29/08)

It's a weird day for us, as it's a day that doesn't normally exist. LOL. I'm watching my new puppy play door tag while she waits for mom to take her on her afternoon walk. She's quite funny and very cute! You'll soon see pictures posted here and I'll want your opinion about her. I thinks she's absolutely adorable, but I'm her mom.

I've begun a new Fan Fiction Page called "Educating Caine." Please read it and let me know what you think of it. Bye, for now. The muse calls and I must answer. LOL.

(02/25/08)

For those of you who actually read this profile from time to time, I'll be writing new epi ideas and editing my old ones a bit less often in coming months. I've recently begun working on a novella and want to finish it, find an agent (any recommendations would be greatly appreciated), and get it published in time for the Christmas rush; maybe sooner if I'm diligent. I'll keep you all posted as to my progress here, so check in often. I'll edit this page to include any new pics or other stuff that you'll probably like.

Feel free to PM me at AllFair4H c/o this Wiki. I'll get back to you within a few days at most. To all my fellow authors on this and other sites, YOU ROCK OUT!!! Keep up the great work. I've tried to get you to correct your grammar and sytax so your lines are easier to read, but a little voice tells me to lay off, as that's your personal voice speaking to your readers. Just as my words are a tad formal, even cold at times, others tales seem a bit rushed or even gramatically incorrect.

A small word of advice, ladies, write your stories as though you're working for the shows already. In other words, check your spelling, syntax, and other underpinnings so you're on the mark. No one here knows just WHO is or will be reading our works, so it pays to write for their eyes as well as your friend's.

Hello from Flora to all the great CSI fans out there! I hope the strike ends soon, so we won't have a delayed start to Season 7. Please feel free to have a look at the posts below and add your comments as the fancy strikes you. See you in the funny papers! LOL.



This is a pic of my hubby of 23 years and I on our 21st anniversary trip to Carmel by the Sea in 2006. More water and sand, mmm boy I can't wait! The pic next to us is last year's shot of one of my fave spots to walk near my home in California.

I call the shot below "The Devil's Stairway" because it the summer it's hot, dry, and very sweaty work returning from my trips to the bottom of the falls. LOL. :) Mags, you should really enjoy these, as they're so different from the scenes around your home. T, the pics are a great reflection of my state of mind, as I tend to be rather rock-headed at times. (Yes that's play on the Greek meaning of my name, Petra, which means either small rock or pebble. It's the feminine dimunutive of the name 'Petros'. I'm not quite sure how it's spelled, though. {03/13/08})
