Last week, hubby brought me to yet another doctor's appointment in the next state over (MA). This time our girls (23 & 18) came with, so we could visit my mom (who lives about a half hour from the clinic) afterwards. Needless to say, I brought my camera. 😊 We were hoping to stop by...

Photos from the first week of July 2018
How the hezmana are we already almost halfway through July? I swear two seconds ago, hubby & I were looking forward to watching Pop Goes the Fourth (because we're such party animals), and now it's already (Happy Friday) the 13th! I actually read a post on Steemit yesterday that had a very good hypothesis as... Continue Reading →
Outtakes from last week’s #wednesdaywalk meander down my driveway
Last week I beat the heat, and managed a meander down my driveway for @tattoodjay's #wednesdaywalk challenge. Today, not only is it our boy's 21st birthday, but it's also a bit late in the warm (80F/27C) day to wander. Instead, I decided to go through the bazillion shots I took with my trusty Nikon COOLPIX... Continue Reading →
Sunset sky – what a difference 11 minutes makes!
I originally planned a different photography post for today, but now that today is almost over, I decided to go with something different, especially after the gorgeous sunset sky tonight totally inspired me! Just after 8:30pm, I noticed the awesome colors on display, and wobbled as fast as my jangly legs would carry me outside... Continue Reading →
Another meander down my driveway for today’s #wednesdaywalk challenge
Happy Fourth of July! On April 18th, 2018 I discovered a new Steemit challenge put forth by @tattoodjay called the Wednesday Walk Challenge. Be sure to check out his guidelines on his latest post (Wednesday Walk in Long Island City) and join in the fun! Back then, I decided to start off by taking a... Continue Reading →
Random photos from the second half of June
A few days ago, I did a kind of a photography catch-up post (Random photos from the first half of June), because even though I've still been taking pictures on an almost daily basis (something I've been doing for a few years now), I haven't done anything with them beyond downloading them off my camera....

Pictures of the Full Honey Moon in Capricorn, June 26th to the 28th
The weather hasn't been particularly cooperative over the past few days (New England - go figure...lol), but you'd never know it by how many pictures I've taken of the moon! Between the 26th and the 28th, I have somewhere north of one hundred pictures (and those are just the ones I didn't delete immediately, because... Continue Reading →
An update on my health (or lack thereof)
It's been a while since I whined about the stupid things my body is doing, and I just had a recent visit with a rheumatologist that answered some questions for me, so I figured an update was in order. I'm still waiting for the results of some x-rays, and I might end up with a... Continue Reading →
Random photos from the first half of June
With everyone going on with my body (and I promise an update post soon - just waiting for the official word on some x-rays), my shutterbugging has taken a backseat. While I still head out with my camera on a mostly-daily basis, I've gotten lazy behind on my resizing/cropping duties, and by extension, my posting.... Continue Reading →
Ghost flowers – my entry into the World Wide Flora contest
NOTE - There's a cool new weekly challenge on Steemit called the World Wide Flora contest. Check out the profile World Wild Flora for more information on how you can participate! Almost three years ago, I found these amazing looking things growing in the woods just off the edge of our backyard. My first impression... Continue Reading →
Full Moon, May 29th – before, during, and after (kinda) plus Jupiter and Spica (I think)
Yep, just a few days late, but things have been... interesting around here, so I haven't been able to get this put together before now. Knowing that the weather in our area is tricky at best, I decided to do a "before, during, after" the full moon kind of thing, so I could make sure... Continue Reading →
Another visit from some Turkey Vultures, May 14th 2018
NOTE - While I'm not completely sure I've figured out the issue with this site crashing, I'm definitely on to something. Fingers crossed that things stay relatively stable now! So this past Monday, there I was, quietly tapping away on my keyboard, when something kinda whispered in my brain, "You're being watched." Sure enough, I... Continue Reading →
