Strong Bond

"It's stronger than most marriages today, that union between man and dog.  Trust and honor, and at least one partner that can keep your secrets, all bonded by unconditional love."

Vendor Night Gifts


On my way home from Vendor Night last evening...   beauty by the river...   beauty in the sky...   and of course, a deer.

Weeds



The flower beds were full of weeds and it is an ongoing job digging them out. Mr. Magic has been weeding this one for weeks and is finally coming to the end this morning. He planted 50+ tulip bulbs in here last week. This flower bed and his tomato garden have kept him pretty busy - hard work and too hot!!

Full Moon Cuteness

I've posted this before, but so cute and appropriate right now.

Mimosa Flower

Mimosa Tree

My next door neighbor's Mimosa Tree.  SO pretty.

Vistar

At my eye doctor appointment for yearly exam this morning. This beautiful large pot of flowers is out front. Nice to see something pretty before getting your eyes dilated. 😂

Strawberry Full Moon



June 2021 - Strawberry Full Moon

1:15 a.m. - It is so bright and beautiful. I wish it could be full all the time. It is clear and 59* - a perfect night.

Windchime #6

Windchime #6
Leaves. This chime was a Christmas gift from Casey and Amanda many years ago. The leaves are ceramic which makes a pretty sound, but it could break in heavy wind. So, it hangs on a moveable stand that I can move close to the porch wall when it is real windy.


LOVE!!


Grotto Flowers



Two of the balloon flowers opened in my little Blessed Mother grotto.

Full Moon

1:00 a.m. Outside my bedroom window. The full strawberry moon is Thursday, but it sure looked full, bright, and beautiful last night.

A Morning Visit


She stopped to nibble a bit in the back yard this morning.

Photo From a Friend

My sweet friend, Audrey Gallagher Fish Pfeifer loves deer. This one was posing in a field on the way into town. Just had to stop and get a photo for you, Audrey!

My dear friend Tricia Scott, who recently moved to Tennessee, posted this on my Facebook timeline this week.  SO thoughtful.  It is a great photo!!   Thank you, Tricia.  💓

Artist Trading Cards

The May-June theme for our ATC group was ARCHITECTURE. I chose to make Church Steeple collages to show just a few examples of the diversity from simple to elaborate construction. These Art Cards are en route across the globe.

"Mirror Mirror"

“Mirror Mirror” - Painting by Rebecca Suzanne Haines.   It is sold, but I had to share.  It’s stunning!

Summer Solstice

HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE!!

It's officially summer here in the Northern Hemisphere! Today is the June solstice, the astronomical start of summer and the longest day of the year.

Jake and Molly




Molly and Jake spent some time together yesterday while Donna and I visited. I think Jake checked out every inch of Molly. 😁

I enjoyed our talk, Donna. 💓

Hungry Mr. Cardinal

This guy is at the window right now filling up on the seeds I just put in the feeder.

A Memory

  • Throwback Thursday ~ I guess this was how we beat the heat back in the day. There I am with Tommy again. No idea who the little cutie is in the small wash tub. Tommy's sister, maybe?

    A fun memory that showed up on my Facebook timeline this morning.

Beautiful Deer


Jake's ear down in the corner.  He watches quietly whenever I stop to photograph deer.


Two young bucks stopped eating the leaves while I took their picture.
We went out to pick up Moe’s for dinner close to 8:00 last evening. Good timing. There were deer everywhere along the lane coming home. They were SO calm and seemed to listen to me talking to them.

Friday Evening on the Back Porch


 



Relaxed on the back porch deck after weeding this evening. I love it out there.
