Good Morning! – FOTD – August 7

Aug 7, 2020

Here’s a pretty sunflower for those of us who need an extra pick me upper.

This is a picture I’ve taken years ago. It’s one of my favorites and it was taken from a park nearby. I’d love to grow these type of mammoth sunflowers in my garden someday.

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it. ~ Maya Angelou

This photo of Mount Rainier was taking on a camping trip on Anderson Island, WA. Such a beautiful and relaxing place to be. We were fortunate to spend some quality time with wonderful friends.

Mr. Bumble Bee Visits Our Garden – FOTD Lemon Sedum

Jul 20, 2020

Our daughter loves seeing bees, butterflies and birds flying around our garden. She insists on calling each bumble bee that she sees Mr. Bumble Bee. I was happy to catch this shot of Mr. Bumble Bee on a Lemon Sedum Flower.

How Doth the Little Busy Bee

Poet: Isaac Watts

How doth the little busy bee
Improve each shining hour,
And gather honey all the day
From every opening flower!

How skilfully she builds her cell!
How neat she spreads the wax!
And labors hard to store it well
With the sweet food she makes.

In works of labor or of skill,
I would be busy too;
For Satan finds some mischief still
For idle hands to do.

In books, or work, or healthful play,
Let my first years be passed,
That I may give for every day
Some good account at last.

Happy Monday! Critter Pictures at Potlatch State Park in Washington

Jul 13, 2020

Camping finds.

Little crab with an “X” on it’s back hiding among the rocks.

Banded Alder Borer Beetle. Odd to see him hanging with the sea life.

Looks like this dried up clam missed going into someone’s cooking pot.

Berry Picking

Jul 5, 2020

We love berry picking! We haven’t been to Graymarsh Farm in years and it was a wonderful outing to do with our kids. The strawberries were mostly spent but the raspberries are just coming in beautifully!
