Happy Birthday McKinsey!! and a Sunday Drive.

Happy 5th Birthday and I am glad that Tia could make a cake for you. We had a great time visiting last week.

The girls loved some of the rocks around a small park that we found.

We wanted to take family pictures and they ended up being some as we walked around a small lake. It was pretty fun.

We took a hike around a small lake and as I was watching some of the wildlife spotted this one blending into it's surroundings.

The deer crossed the road in front of us in no hurry. I had my camera on my lap so as my son drove next to it I had him roll down his window and shot across in front of him just as the deer jumped the fence. Then I looked at my display and it was dark. Luckily it had enough raw data to pull it out pretty good.

Happy Birthday Gabe!

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY !

Birds and Blossoms, Just a little Saturday fun

So I was working in the garden last Saturday when I heard a loud noise in the trees above my head. There were two woodpeckers just making a big disturbance. I grabbed my camera and started shooting. I then went around the yard and took a bunch more while I was stopped. It was nice and relaxing.
