Swallowtail Butterfly

There is so much beauty in the world, but you must allow yourself to see it.

Signs of Summer

 The soil is the great connector of lives, the source and destination of all. 
It is the healer and restorer and resurrector, 
by which disease passes into health, 
age into youth, death into life. 
Without proper care for it we can have no community, 
because without proper care for it 
we can have no life.
- Wendell Berry

Wisdom is oft-times nearer when we stoop 

Than when we soar.

― William Wordsworth

A Damselfly and a "Pop it"

When I was a child, my siblings, cousins, and I would get

together at my Grandmother's farm and have

"Pop it" Wars.

Have you ever heard of a "Pop it" War?

The plant above is what we would call a "Pop it".

We would gather LOTS and LOTS of these and wrap the stems

around the bottom of the top part....and "pop" the top off and

hit each other with them. These are very small so of course

they didn't hurt...but it was TONS of FUN!

Moon in the Daytime Sky

No matter where it is in the sky... No matter where you are in the world... the moon is never bigger than your thumb. 
 — Nicholas Sparks (Dear John) 

 I took this shot on beautiful blue sky morning.

Wishing you a Wonderful Day!

Blue Flower

Each moment is a chance for us to make peace with the world, to make peace possible for the world, to make happiness possible for the world.
