Today is my birthday. It started out with some of my favorite people for breakfast at a McDonald’s – no where near where we live. That meant we had to get up at 5:00 a.m. But it was worth it. Several are WWII veterans. I don’t ever want to miss a chance to visit withContinue reading “Foggy Hike – Snapshot of the Day, No. 295”

Dragonfly Portrait – Snapshot of the Day, No. 169
So, while out picking blackberries today, we encountered several cool creatures. One was this little dragonfly who did not seem to be afraid of me. He amazingly stood still long enough for me to get his photo. He was so small, I only got a chance to see what he really looks like when IContinue reading “Dragonfly Portrait – Snapshot of the Day, No. 169”
