MORE MAGIC...JUST FOR ME?

Another great Sunday afternoon, pickin' and grinnin' with friends at the Air Stream camp...and then, waiting for me on the way home was this beauty...

Those folks at the camp ground have a very magical place (and I think they know it!!)

JUNE'S FULL MOON...TONIGHT WE SEE THE STRAWBERRY MOON

Cool Graphics
Who knows if the moon's
a balloon, coming out of a keen city
in the sky - filled with pretty people?

THANKS MOTHER NATURE...

Following a fine session of pickin' and grinnin' with my friends at the beautiful Air Stream Camp, Mother Nature treated me with this site of Mother Turkey and her babies...how many babies can you find? Look very closely...
I see six...maybe seven(dark spot by Mom's tailfeathers)...

Thinking of my Dad...Happy Father's Day

ANOTHER GIFT...

Gimme a long neck???





I can't help but think of this guy as the "old man" of the bird kingdom, he looks so prehistoric...




Another exciting visit...this time from the Blue Heron...he visits from time-to-time...don't know if he's passing thru or a "local"...I'll continue to watch for him, would love to get a clearer pic...

A DELIGHTFUL SURPRISE...

Earlier today as I was driving to town, I saw the on-coming traffic had stopped, crossing the highway was mother skunk and her 6 babies, 5 of whom were sticking close to mom...#6 took his own sweet time catching up, and eventually joined his sibs and a very anxious mom. This was such a delightful and charming site but then I saw the faces of all who had witnessed this parade, we had all clearly enjoyed our little and relatively safe encounter with these cute but highly- feared varmints!

Native Americans (see 5/20 post#2) might suggest that since this event happened directly in front of me, in such an odd place (major highway) and time (skunks are nocturnal) as well as it being my first time to ever see a skunk family that perhaps the skunk is another one of my totem animals!! First the crow, now skunks. I won't attempt a guess at what may come next! Click on screen and enjoy a little Pepe Le Pew...I guess I'll go do some reading...

WISDOM...

REFLECTIONSThe world is a looking-glass, and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face. Frown at it, and it in turn will look sourly upon you; laugh at it and with it, and it is a jolly, kind companion.

W.M. Thackeray

MORE LOCAL FLORA...

A delightful, but not-so-common find...a pink wild azalea

The early-blooming Redbud tree wins the prize for the prettiest color of pink...that would be the opinion of the poster, of course...

WALKING THE RIVER BANK...

A walk along the river bank in the valley where there are many beautiful wildflowers..Virginia Bluebells on the right and Wild Phlox below...
