Looks Like Fun!

In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured. 

 ― Gordon B. Hinckley

I have a HUGE fascination with flight!  I was able to capture this Red Milkweed Beetle during his flight :) 
These little beetles always look so happy!  Their markings make them look like they have a smile on all the time :)

Birds Play Keep Away

We are never more fully alive, more completely ourselves, or more deeply engrossed in anything, than when we are at play.

See ya Later

If you never did you should. These things are fun and fun is good.

Images from a weekend at Claytor Lake.  Not only did the squirrel catch my eye but also the bokeh made by the autumn leaves and light.

 

Goodbye Letter to Summer

Dear Summer,  

It was so nice of you to bring such lovely weather these past three months.  

I've had such a good time chasing the butterflies and finding some interesting bugs.

Thank you for the many hours of Joy you brought to me.  I'm really going to miss you.

Take care and come back soon!

With Warmest Regards,

Kerri

PS - please let Autumn know I am looking forward to seeing him.

PSS - Can you ask Winter to go easy on us this year?

Hummingbird Dance

On with the dance! Let joy be unconfined.

~Lord Byron

They weren't really dancing but it sure was FUN to watch.

 

Bug - Doing the Hokey Pokey

Looking at this bug I am reminded of an old elementary school song - The Hokey Pokey

What a fun song that was to sing! Even as adults we sing that song here in Blacksburg during Virginia Tech Football games.  

Here is the same shot of the bug - just not cropped as closely. 
 He has Queen Anne's Lace as his "umbrella".  

Laughter is the sensation of feeling good all over and showing it principally in one place.

Squirrel - Face to Face Fun

Laughter is the shortest distance 
between two people.

- Victor Borge

I LOVE to Laugh! I was texting one day on my iPhone with autocorrect on - and I wanted to type "Yipppeeee" and the phone "corrected" it to show "Tupperware" I sent the text before I caught the error and had the Biggest Laugh in a long time. I'm still laughing.

Fill your Life with Lots of Laughter :)

Ready for Take Off

Doesn't that Look Like Fun?

A highlight of our vacation one summer (in North Carolina) was seeing all of the birds that I never get to see normally. It was fun to see this guy running through the mud getting ready to take off. I'm just sorry that it isn't a clearer picture. I was totally unprepared! Hope you all have a Wonderful Day!
