What a busy time this spring and summer have been.
There has been no time at all for blogging and I truly have missed it.
Over the course of the next few days I hope to catch up here with our happenings.
Lots has been good -
some not so good.
But all is well that ends well.
It was a pretty spring here in Lapeer (outside of Marathon) New York.
A few fields were covered with Ragged Robin - such a pretty pink
Along the edge of our woods were the Trout Lilies
There were thousands of Spring Beauty in the woods.
This Cedar Waxwing stunned himself flying into a garage window. When he recovered enough to fly into a nearby tree, he was still confused enough to allow me near to him with the camera.
One of my first passion flower blooms.
I had to have this plant this year.
It hasn't let me down.
Spectacular!
While the Ragged Robin was in bloom, other fields were covered with the even more prolific Scabiosa.
The view one evening from a kitchen window at dusk.
Who said that lightning doesn't strike twice in the same spot?
This is a fallacy proven by the dead tree at left which was struck last fall for the second time in the exact spot.
It didn't survive the second time.
Now it's history thanks to our son-in-law Ken.
TIMBERRRRRRRRRRR-R!
What a great job.
He put it exactly where Vic asked.
Ken is a tree surgeon.
Thanks, Ken!
You're the BEST tree guy and son-in-law!
