Cirrusly Swiss Cheese
This cirrus cloud appeared yesterday, punched full of holes like Swiss cheese, by aircraft traveling along routes to Tampa, Orlando, or Miami. As they passed through the clouds, their wings created a spinning wake, like miniature horizontal tornadoes, that tore holes in the clouds and left a confused pattern behind. Clearly this was another busyContinue reading “Cirrusly Swiss Cheese”
A Lot of #2!
Fairy had been out on errands a little while earlier on Saint Patrick’s Day. When it was time to go to the neighbors for games and a corned beef and cabbage dinner, the odometer caught my eye as I prepared to start the car. For all the autos I have owned, I don’t remember everContinue reading “A Lot of #2!”
Made in the Shade
She didn’t mind that we were conversing all around her, Baby made herself cozy and catnapped in the shade while we gossiped. #cat #catnap #shade
A-Dora-ble
Well, we weren’t exactly what he was looking for, a hot date. This great blue heron is all dressed up and ready to mingle. I wish him the best of luck and may he and his mate now be happily settled in their nest high in some tree along Dora Canal. #greatblueheron #doracanal

Methinks he’s way past the need for sunscreen. #skeleton #swamp #sunscreen
Afternoon Delight
A great egret watched without concern as we passed by in a pontoon boat during an afternoon tour of Dora Canal near Mount Dora, Florida. More than a hundred years ago it would have been much more elusive, for it would have been the target of hunters seeing its feathers for fashion, and they wereContinue reading “Afternoon Delight”
Adult Entertainment
Sometimes you can separate the men from the boys, but you can never separate the boy from the man. That is unless the “man” has the adult sized Red Ryder BB gun. No more kid stuff for me, this is the real 650-shot, lever action range model carbine for grown-ups. It has a longer, reinforcedContinue reading “Adult Entertainment”
Morning Magic
Once again fickle fingers of sunlight poked through the window blinds to selectively tickle decorations on the end table. The wooden manta rays, the napkin, and part of the sea turtle reflected the rays while the goat still hid in the shadow. Not to worry, a short time later even the reclusive old goat gotContinue reading “Morning Magic”
Old Sew and So’s
It is finished or perhaps I should say refinished. This sewing cabinet from the early 1900’s showed wear from its century-long existence but was over all in good shape, so we decided to have it professionally restored. Eugenio and son were delighted to see it in January when we took it to their workshop, andContinue reading “Old Sew and So’s”
