On My Way Home From School Today, I...


paused to admire some mops (and you thought I had rehabilitated...),


wove and dodged through the lunch traffic,


 picked my way through a myriad of bikers,


walked through some sort of activist rally,


learned some sign language,


 indulged in music appreciation,


slapped down 10 yuan ($1.66) and became a card-toting member of the Cycling Association of Peking University,


and nearly took out this clown on my bicycle.

A Wordless 45 Picture Photo Essay of Montana, Banff, Lake Louise, the Calgary Stampede and Glacier National Park: Hiking, Biking, Camping, and River Rafting with 3 Friends in 2014
















































A Little Bit of Peanut Butter At the Bottom of the Jar


I found this beautiful nest and eggs out in the yard of our farm-- perfect in every way, except that it didn't yield life!  Perhaps Mom got sidetracked or delayed.  Or perhaps the wind gently glided this nest to the ground while she was out worming.


Funky Day at my granddaughter Lily's school.  I've seen kids who dressed this way EVERY day!


My son belongs to a "Sock-of-the-Month" club that benefits people in a Third World Country.  What a great idea!  I keep finding these gems in my photo file!  Lucky us!!!!!!
