I had grand plans of putting together a post over the weekend, talking about our 32nd wedding anniversary this past Thursday (October 7th). I even discovered a brand new Hive community that I thought would be perfect to try out for the occasion. But even though I wrote the post at least a half dozen... Continue Reading →
Sublime Sunday – Double Dreamy Resplendent Rainbow Reminder
It's hurting my brain a bit to realize that I haven't done a Sublime Sunday post since May. It's probably around the last time I used the Deep Dream Generator as well, so for this post I'm sharing some photos of a Double Dreamy (in both that it was a double rainbow, as well as... Continue Reading →
Misty morning woods for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
PLEASE NOTE: Since my WordPress blog went wonky on Thursday, I posted this Misty morning woods blog first over on my Hive blog and now that my blog is back (hopefully - it's been offline twice in the past two days), I'm resharing it here today. In theory, I've tweaked it so that it makes... Continue Reading →
Green trees with hints of fall foliage for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
I knew the weather here today in New Hampshire was going to be rainy with a side of wet, so yesterday afternoon I took advantage of some moments of sunshine to wander around in the woods behind our house. While last time for Thursday Tree Love I shared a tree already changing color, here in... Continue Reading →
The tree that signals the end of summer for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
The idea for this Thursday Tree Love post about the tree that signals the end of summer popped in my brain a few days ago, as my husband and I were coming home from shopping. As we came around the corner of a road not too far from our place, I noticed a tree was... Continue Reading →
In memory of a tree branch for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove (and featuring some Feathered Friends)
Yes, I'm doing something a little different for this Thursday Tree Love post - I've put together some old and new photos in memory of a tree branch. A very special tree branch, which was part of a long dead tree and has made many appearances here on my blog, usually because of the many... Continue Reading →
The Crayfish and the Bear (unusual visitors to our yard)
July has been an interesting month, to say the least! I planned to sit down yesterday to do this post to share a couple of unusual visitors who stopped by over the past few weeks & helped make things interesting (the aforementioned crayfish & the bear), since it also happened to be my birthday (fifty-six,...

Visiting the woods for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
Hard to believe it's been a whole month since I've done a Thursday Tree Love post. Our esteemed WordPress blog hop host, Parul, was busy offline for the last one on July 8th and while I planned to do one anyway, before I knew it, Friday the 9th had already rolled around. But earlier today... Continue Reading →
Seven shots of the Waxing Gibbous Moon July 20th 2021
It's been a minute since I've done a moon post. In fact, the last one was back on April 22nd, when I also featured pictures of a Waxing Gibbous Moon. However last night (July 20th 2021), for a brief moment in time, the near continuous rain we've been getting here in the Northeast stopped, the... Continue Reading →
Green Solstice Trees for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
Well technically I took these photos today, not four days ago, but I figure we're still close enough to the date that they count as green Solstice trees! 😂 In fact, the idea for doing this didn't come until I went out in our yard yesterday and took some pictures of the five usual spots...

Update on our landlady’s memorial tree for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
I haven't done a Thursday Tree Love post since April 22nd, 2021, partly because the WordPress bloghop host Parul has been offline since early in May, when she and her husband contracted Covid (and partly because I've been so busy with so many things!). Thankfully they're recovering now, and she's back with a new post... Continue Reading →
The Lady Slipper and the Goldfinches
Okay, I think the title might accidentally deceptive - while this post has pictures of a Lady Slipper and some Goldfinches, the two aren't actually together...lol! In fact, this was simply going to be a post about the feeders I picked up for my mother this afternoon, along with some unpublished-before-now pictures of some Goldfinches... Continue Reading →
