Thunderstorms Today

shoreline

Sunny is getting old.  He can’t keep up with me when we go walking anymore.  So today I left Sheba with Ron and took a gentle stroll with Sunny along the shoreline, letting him take all the time he wanted to sniff and explore while I took pictures.

Blackberries and hairy ragwort.

I always wonder how much more time we have with him, so I want to let him pack all the doggie adventure in that he can in his remaining time.

Shortly after we returned from our walk, the thunderstorms moved in.

The variety of plant life around the lake is amazing.  It’s pretty humbling to see how much I don’t know!

Anyway, I’ll share some of my photos and hope you enjoy them.

Lagustrum. Not sure if its tree privet or Chinese privet. (Or another lagustrum!)

Last Day at Ann’s

Ann took this photo of me trying to get a shot of a wasp's nest!

Today is our last day here at Ann and Cecil’s place.

This is the picture I was shooting in the header photo. Ann came out with a can of wasp spray as soon as I told her about it!

Cecil drove a friend to a doctor’s appointment in Gainesville.  Ann was exhausted from spending too much time in the kitchen lately.  Ron went to town and wandered around there for a while.  So I took the opportunity to hunt down photo subjects.

We also did our own dinners tonight.  I grilled seasoned zucchini squash and sauteed chicken tenders, onions, peppers and garlic for an easy one-dish meal.

Since I don’t have any exciting adventures to share today, I’ll just post photos again.  🙂

Cecil has gopher tortoises on his property, and I thought this was one of their holes. But Cecil said it was probably an armadillo hole.
