Our first day at the beach in Florida
Well...we didn't make it to the beach til mid-afternoon on that first day, Jan. 22nd. First of all, Amy and I took a little walk because I was trying to find a nearby nature place called the Lemon Bay Conservancy and I'm looking it up on google maps right now and people have posted pictures of it, with a pond or something and suddenly I can't find the pictures anymore and when you zoom into the address it's just a building with a sign that says "lemon Bay Conservancy," which is maybe why I couldn't find it.

Baby birds in the mast plus yet another sting
It's nearing the end of July, and I just got my second wasp sting of the summer. This morning I was trying to rotate a big planter/bench that's on our back deck off the bedroom. Dad planted coral...
Just one picture
I realize that this photo is up above in the banner, but really, it's one of my favorites. One of the first nighttime photos with my new phone. I might even print it out and frame it. Many things...
June, in July
June 11th, to be exact. I was up pretty early (for me), enjoying the morning and the darling kitties who were also enjoying the morning. It's usually Lester who is posing for the camera while Riley...

DON’T BE DUMB. plus beautiful orchid blooms
Don't be dumb, that's me talking to me. You can do whatever you want, but I, personally, I'm trying like crazy to not be dumb. So far it's not working out super great. It's all about my dumb knee...
the rest of May
A good moon photo! I'm excited to take more moon photos with this new phone. Sunday May 30th we had a little get-together for my birthday and then we sat down by the water where it was chilly! This...
More May Stuff
It suddenly got super hot around here but it cools off at night which is great. I have photos from the end of May, but these are mostly from May 22nd, after Kevin and I took that lovely kayak trip....
May, quickly slipping away…
How did that happen? It felt like mid-summer with temps soaring high into the 80s but it's suddenly cooling off a bit, now that June is almost upon us. On May 20th we were down at the dock and a...
