The Geese on Fry Creek

Here I am, back at my favorite spot for taking pictures.

I visit this place often!

These Canada Geese are feeding, swimming among and casting some marvelous reflections!

This is an uncropped image of the same area. There were other goose families on this inlet, also.

Soon they will start practicing for their fall migration.

An Evening Paddle

Driving home last week

I impulsively turned down the road which goes by this place.

This kayaker,

Enjoying an evening paddle,

Caught my eye.

I had to hurry, 

Opportunities like this don't last long!

From the Bridge

To get to town from home, I have to cross a bridge. 

Sometimes traffic is very slow.

Sometimes it stops.

It stopped this day.

Sunday Bridges

In South Dakota

We just returned from a road trip to Indiana and Nebraska. We were on the interstate highways a LOT. Now, one nice thing about interstate highways is the availability of rest areas. They vary from state to state, but offer an opportunity to stand up, walk around, and, if you're like me, take pictures! These shots were from one rest area in South Dakota. The frame of a concrete teepee...

This looks like it could have been set up as a sundial, too!

South Dakota is dry, but you do find trees!

Scenic Sunday

I think the Indians used notches like you see here, but probably not bolts and wire!

6/26/11 Note: Spadoman (see his comment below) informs me that they didn"t use notches, but that the poles were tied together. Thanks for educating me!

September Rose

This lovely carefree rose keeps blooming.
It is the same bush as my August Rose post,
but a different bloom and a different day.

Weedy Reflections

The yellow flowers are tansy.
It is an invasive weed,
but pretty!

Summer Scene with Geese

Here is a peaceful scene, full of summer in northern Idaho.
I am thankful God enabled me to live in such a place.

Summer Stock Sunday-Family Fun

This is one of the best things about summer-getting together with family to enjoy the sun, have a picnic, and play in the water. The occasion this time was a birthday party (hence the balloons!) but other excuses, or no excuse, are just as good!

Summer Stock Sunday--Sun Tea

Sun tea is a summer staple for my husband. He carries a half-gallon jug of it to work every day so he can stay hydrated no matter whether he is in the shop or on the road.
