Dance with the waves, move with the sea, let the rhythm of the water set your soul free.

The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.

About Glida
This site started as “glida.org,” named after our dog Glida (read more in the sidebar). We brought Glida home after visiting Israel; she was a stray 🐶 looking for 💙… We love traveling and this is our story in photos. Thanks for visiting.
This little mutt with a healthy ego inspired in me the idea of creating a website. The site has evolved since but it’s core, seeing hazily, remained intact.
Glida was born in Israel and immigrated to the US in 1996. She’s a mutt with bogus interests and limited social skills, much like her dad. Besides chasing squirrels and bunnies (she never caught one!), she likes her two walks a day — rain or shine — and getting unhealthy treats. Feel free to roam the site and get lost in its forbidden lifelessness.
Sadly, on November 19, 2011, Glida passed away at 17. They say about Israeli natives (such as Glida and I), that we’re like Sabras (Israeli cactus): prickle on the outside and sweet on the inside. Glida, however, was prickle on the outside and prickle on the inside. Gonna miss you tons “Doggy Bag.”
