"Summer Is Here"

The theme this week is "Summer Is Here"  by Christine.  Mac, Kathy, Lew, Christine and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesdays and voting begins after that. Mac is traveling on his birthday week so will miss him today. 

I love summer and sometimes the summer sky loves you back. Do you see a heart or something else?

 Everything becomes so green, even the water reflections.
The skies put on a show of wispy clouds.
You really want to enjoy the day.
The Canada Geese and the goslings abound and get ready for a swim.
The rabbits laze around in the back yard.

Children's Toys

The theme this week is "Children Toys"  by Mac.  Mac, Kathy, Lew, Christine and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesdays and voting begins after that. 

I have some children toys on display in the computer room. These are a car I had and one I wish I had.
 I had a 56 Chevy white over black. I painted it a solid 49 Ford red. How do you like this light box photo Mac.
I wish I had a 56 Corvette but only dreamed of it.
They were a classic body shape that is still a beauty today.

"Recent Photos"

The theme this week is "Recent Photos"  by Kathy.  Mac, Kathy, Lew, Christine and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesdays and voting begins after that. 

I saw these ducks last week by the lake. They didn't look like mallards so I had to look them up. They are American Black Ducks. A first for me.
They were a family and not afraid.
The dark color helped to identify them.
I think they are a neat duck.

"Looking Down"

The theme this week is "Looking Down"  by me.  Mac, Kathy, Lew, Christine and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesdays and voting begins after that. 

 So I thought a trip around the Kent Bog may give some looking down experiences. I found this while looking down, a fiddle head fern showing the fiddle head shape at the top.
But back to the beginning with a sign telling you where you are.
There is a boardwalk the whole way around the bog. You can go either way. I usually choose clockwise.
Okay feet don't fail me now.
While looking down you see the typical boggy condition, don't stray off the walkway.
You do see a lot of moss. I wonder if something burrowed into this clump?
The beauty of the blooms can be seen looking down.
The tamarack trees have lost their yellow needles and now have fresh green growth.
I'm not sure what this bell shaped flower is but I found it looking down. I hope you enjoyed your trip to the Kent Bog.
