Day Two Hundred and Five Through Two Hundred and Eleven

July 26th

For my Birthday I got to watch them tear up my front yard.  When you own a home its one thing after another.



Travis came to save the day. 



July 25th  I guess I missed another day.  Must be my age

Jul 24th

Peppers are ready in the garden and boy do they smell hot.



July 23rd

Pap, Poppy, Lincoln and Lawson at the Lawrence reunion.  Did not notice till now that they all had red on.


July 22nd 

The Ohio River


July 22nd

Anyone want to go on a boat ride?  This is also the Ohio River. 

 July 20th

This bunny was hanging around my mom's house.  He came to visit us each night we were there.  If he was smart he had better stay out of her garden.










Day One Hundred and Ninety Seven Through Two Hundred and Four

July 19th  No picture.  Not sure what happened


July 18th

I am now learning to crochet so I made  this dinosaur hat for Lincoln.  Used Poppy's head for the photo though. 
July 17th

The windmills in Tucker county.   They are really big.  Not sure how many there are but they go along way on the mountain ridge.




July 16th Horseback riding was on my bucket list so Jeff and I decided to try it.  My horses name was Lady. All she wanted to do was take me in the high grass so that she could eat.  It was fun but the hour and a half was a little too long. 
Don't I look like I am having fun?  Jeff always has fun. 



July 15th

Some water falls that we happened upon while we were out driving.  I would love to have them in my back yard.  The sound of the falls are so peaceful.




July 14th

Just kind of struck me funny.  Who knows

July 13th

Another beautiful full moon

July 12th

While laying out by the pool I started looking at the way the clouds take shape.  This one did look like a dog with its ears flapping in the wind but I think by the time I snapped the picture the shape had changed.

Day One Hundred and Ninety Through One Hundred and Ninety Six

July 11th

Red sky at night Sailors delight...... Very hot and humid all day and then we got a huge and powerful storm.  After all was said and done this is what the sky looked like.   Absolutely beautiful.



July 10th

We rescued a bumble bee from our pool.   Someone in this house is all about saving creatures.  He says they all have a purpose and I say not in my house they don't. I thought I had taken a better picture but at least I tried.

July 9th

A day with the dinosaurs. This is in Pittsburgh and the National History Museum. I can not believe how big this animals were.

It is harvest time in the Lawrence garden.  Our first attempt at growing Romaine lettuce.  The leaves are huge.  Hope the rabbits don't get them

 July 7th

Our first green squash
 July 6th
Our first yellow squash.  Nothing better than stepping out into the garden to pick fresh vegetables.  Can't wait for the tomatoes and green beans.

 

 July 5th

It is smoking hot.  Budweiser thermometer says it all.

Nothing better than coloring on the sidewalk.

Look how big this slide is.  The swing set was in a park at Glade Springs and it was made out of logs.  It even had a swinging bridge.
 June 23rd

Time is ticking away.  This is at the entrance of Glade Springs.
 June 22nd

Not sure what these are I just know that they were very large.
 June 21st

This mother deer did not seem to be afraid of anything but she is keeping her eye on Barley.  Barley did not even notice her.  He is so not observant.

June 20th 

I love to watch the baby deer.  There was actually two of them roaming around the park.  Barley did bark at this one

Our first tomato of the year.  Can't wait until it turns red.
