I was on the deck this afternoon, ready to snap a picture of my colorful Lantana, when this little hummingbird suddenly appeared in my viewfinder. I was already focused on the flower, so I got off one click of the shutter before he was gone. Pretty cool. I think they call this serendipity.

Day Two Hundred Seventeen 2011
"There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls." ~ George CarlinGarden ornament in black and white (and shades of gray). During the day, the globe soaks up the sunlight. At night, it glows. Pretty cool. I like moon faces. This is one of many around my yard.
Happy TGIF, everyone!

Day Two Hundred Sixteen 2011
Grandson Elijah only had a half day of school again today, so after a "delicious hamburger" (I'm quoting him) at McDonald's for lunch, he was ready to settle in at Granny's house to play video games on the Wii and watch Pink Panther cartoons on Netflix. He was none too happy when we made a detour to spend some time with my mom/his great granny. No cousins there to hang out with today. His mom came to the rescue and loaned him her iPod which he enjoyed for a while. But the thing he probably enjoyed the most was getting to throw rocks in the pond on the grounds at my mom's place. He loves to do that. Plus, walking under the willows and getting to say hello to the resident cat is fun, too. (The cat-- whose name is Snuggles, I think, but we call him Persian and sometimes Elijah calls him Butter-- got a shave and a haircut for the summer.) So the afternoon wasn't a total bust for Elijah. Anyway, he'll be stuck inside a classroom all too soon when kindergarten classes start full days next week. Wednesday, August 3, 2011

Day Two Hundred Fourteen 2011
"I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze. But I think maybe it's both. Maybe both are happening at the same time." ~Forrest Gump (1994)
