One thing I was ecstatic to see the first time we went out to look at the property was that there were gopher tortoise holes. I’ve been a fan of gopher tortoises since I lived on the farm; we had them out there. I just love the slow, steady, “ah-yup” …
A couple of weeks ago, when Antony was visiting, he and I went with Aunt Gay and Uncle Joe and walked a good portion of the La Chua Trail. Below are the photos I took (you might have to come to the site if you’re looking at this in an …
…(or her, I shouldn’t assume)…. and once in a while I see him.
This morning the dogs were going a little crazy just outside the back door. I got up super-early this morning, unable to sleep, so it was still pretty dusky out – although I did have the back porch light on. What I found gave me the opportunity to test out …
A few weeks ago (this Spring is just racing past) we went to Wekiwa Springs for a few days, to stay with Amy and Isaac as Amy and Tim’s parents were in town. Cetty and Joe, having just spent almost a week with us, went down as well (Cetty could …
Remember when Jag and Antony came to visit? One day we all went out to Paynes Prairie and Lake Wauburg. We walked trails and snuck out to see the horses and … is “snuck” a word? SpellCheck wants me to change it to “sneaked” but I think “snuck” is reasonable. …
Yesterday there was a Sandhill Crane convention above my house. My friend Lesley joked that they were looking for HaldeSoap. Tee. I also got a lot of work done, but can already tell that all the soap that I (re)made from last week’s humidity ruin is ruined again, so instead …
[pictobrowser type=”flickr” albumID=”72157627784943201″] If you’re in a Reader, you probably won’t see the photos in the album above. Which, if you’re afraid of Safari animals, then you’re not missing much! When we went to Disney a couple of months ago, one of the early morning perks for staying at a …
I was outside the other day taking sock photos (what! Finished knitting project! Natural light!) and I heard the call of the bird previously seen in a pair of much more blurry shots here and here. He was nice enough to hold still while I snapped about a dozen photos, …
Yesterday morning, Aunt Gay, Uncle Joe, Jag, Antony, and I walked the La Chua Trail. Nature put on it’s best show for us, and other than almost being carried off by love bugs at one point, a great time was had! The photo album below (you won’t see if if …
Jag and Antony are in town this week (!!!!! OMGPONIES !!!!!) and we’re being all kinds of social. It is SO!GOOD! to see them, and weird with how far away they live, that it looks completely normal to look up and see them across the table. Yesterday, Aunt Gay, Jag, …

We’ve had lunch at Chopstix the last two days – Saturday I forgot my camera, and regretted it when we saw an alligator sunning himself (herself? They always seem like boys to me…). Sunday I remembered, and was rewarded! Have I mentioned how much I love the zoom on my …
It’s blurry, but I don’t care – I managed to snap this just as the bee flew into the web and became breakfast. The rest of my 2010 photos can be viewed here.
Sharon pointed out to me yesterday that the baby birds are in that awkward teenage stage; not big enough to fly, too big to all fit in the nest anymore. OH THE CUTE.
I’ve been watching with baited breath as a pair of birds has been building a nest near a hardly-used door by Roly Poly next to the yarn shop. Saturday I was rewarded! I have three more pictures here, here, and here. They’re so ugly! But so cute! But so ugly! …

So I mentioned the other day that I’m doing a Photo-of-the-Day thing again (you can see them here); so instead of a new photo every Friday now I’m going to choose one of my favorites from the last week of daily photos. From a technical point of view I like …
