Friday Face Off ...



This handsome young lady was a rescue at our Raptor Center.  What a treat she was to deal with.  She was treated and released ... a happy ending.

Thursday Art & Dinner Date! ... Heat Wave


 Heat Wave















Old Art




It's not easy to take a picture of a heat wave, so this is as close as I can come.  Much of our earth is experiencing a Heat Wave ... the Ocean water along the Florida coast has reached 100 degrees ... certainly destructive for the sea life.  And that doesn't even include the 2 weeks of 110 degrees in Arizona ... these are scary times, my friends and I fear we haven't seen the worst of it.

Tea Parties were never my "Cup of Tea", so I don't have much to offer this week.  Some of you may be relieved and others well ... I hope you all can enjoy 😊

Ice tea would seem to be the choice of the day as the heat continues to scald our countryside ... hopefully there will be an end in sight and hopefully people will start taking "Climate Change" seriously ... if it isn't already too late to reverse the course of things.   Stay Cool, if you can and hydrate :)

Thursday Art & Dinner Date .... Sounds ofSummer


 Sounds of Summer

New Art

We are always aware of birds, by their song, honk or cackle, by the splashing of water or the flapping of their wings. 






This one is for David ...












Mom talks to her kits as she crosses the yard ...

 the baby fox squeals with joy as he plays ... 

The croak of the Bullfrog is heard far and wide ...

These are the sounds I miss the most ... Izzi was a talker and after you lived with her for awhile, you knew what she was saying.  She was the smartest dog I have ever known.

I am late posting today because we have WIFI issues at our house ... like it takes an hour to upload a picture.  So finally, at 3:30 in the afternoon, I have finished my post.  It is exasperating ... and it is worrisome when I think of how dependent we are, as a society, on computer technology.  We are vulnerable, to say the least 😟 
That said, I hope you have a wonderful week with reasonable weather.  It has been crazy everywhere from to much heat to too much rain to too little rain(drought) to severe storms to tornadoes ... I don't think it has been too cold anywhere.  That, I think is a good thing 😁  Be well everyone ...
