spiraling down

Some good guesses were put out there, but only Stuv got it right when he said San Diego. Congrats Stuv! You win, eh, ah laurel, and hardy hand shake. : -/ San Diego, the land of sand, sun and a photograph around every corner. We came down here for a couple of days to celebrate my birthday and just generally relax. And relax we did. With some eating out, another trip to the USS Midway and a ride on the Seal bus/boat, we had a great time. Back to the real world now with responsibilities, blah, blah, blah.

During the Rain

So it rained here yesterday (I know, crazy right!) and I thought I'd go out to the front rose bed a take some pics. And I did it, wait for it, while it was still raining! What can I say, I'm dedicated to my art. Or...it wasn't really raining that hard. Either way my lens hood caught a few drops, and I think my head got damp. But that's not why we're here people! You've come for pictures and I got 'em!

I call this one, wet rose.

During Rain Rose

This one is wet rose also, but less rosey.

During Rain Orange

And this one is cleverly named...(the suspense is killing you)...wet leaf.

During Rain Leaf

I know, I said the rest of the week would be about "Where's Marshall", but you'll have to tune in tomorrow for the start of the guessing.

Gentle Fern

Hope everyone has a great week! We're gonna play "Where am I" the rest of the week. ;)

Smart? No. Beautiful? Yes. He's a Ragdoll kitty and he's fluffy all over.

bottle and bee

I love bottlebrush trees. The awesome red tipped with neon yellow makes me stop and look every time. Apparently bees are quite fond of them too. I watched bees work this tree over for quite a while, fillin' their bellies. It's so cool to be among all this activity and try to capture the feeling of being there. Not sure this picture totally does it, but I like it all the same. Have a great Friday!
