Olympics Day 4 Silver Medal Pic

Synchronized diving was always a foppish sport to me, kind of goofy looking. Until I realized that i get my ears clogged in 6 feet of water.

Olympics Day 3 Silver Medalist

Beijing Silver Medal Picture, Day 2-Michael Phelps

Do you think I could go an Olympics Swimming Competition without a Michael Phelps reference?

I would say if you were American, you would recognize the Chinese team flagbearer.

Flickr Experiment 6.4.6

This is just a trial run, something that could be fun or could fall flat on its face.

So, I went into Flickr and found the 6th most popular tag for the last week, then clicked on the fourth page and finally copied the 6th picture, because it is about 6:30 here. And this is what I found.

Project 365 #108 Forrest Hills

This is where I have been spending my afternoons recently, in an attempt to save The Duck family a little money in parking and gas. Its not as nice as it looks.

The perfect day to show off how your garden was growing, May 1st, of course.

Wordless Wednesday #2

This is also Project 365 picture #105.

Its one of the last shots of April, a rainy storm coming in.



and no I did not tweak it a bit.

Project 365 #104 Bettina & My Chair

I am very happy that Bettina has slowly gotten herself more acclimated and accepting of us as the months have gone on. Heck, she even lets me pet her now. I am none to happy about how she has taken over my favorite chair in the living room, because she does not move to easily and when she does get off, she makes you feel guilty for moving her.

Mr September 18th-James Marsden

By a vote of 7 to 2, James Marsden eeked out a win over Sol Campbell for hottest guy born on September 18th. Want more? Well after drooling here, I found plenty more at Celebrity Wonder.

Wordless Wednesday #1-Gaia Remembered

Hey, another bandwagon to jump on, as this is my First Wordless Wednesday.



Mother Nature/Gaia came through last night, the day started out rainy and stormy, as it should have been and ended with this beauty of a sunset, also probably how it should have been.

Project 365 #102-Flower Flurries

As you can see, the Pesky Tree does not tend to allow the flower to stay long. But this kind of flurry I can handle.

Project 365 #101-Pesky Tree

As I have said before, this tree is a pain in the neck. It is a haven for birds and the leaves make a mess, etc, etc. But, in April, this tree does its sucking up by making pretty pink flowers.

Project 365 #100-Who the Hell Knows

Ok, on this day in April, I was lacking in imagination. Bettina was peering through the curtains back at us, but as soon as I moved, so did she, so this is all I could get.

Project 365 #98-Garden Update

I mentioned way back how we had done some actual landscaping out front in our little yard. Well here is an update with all the stepping stones. At least how it was in late April.

Project 365 #97-Tree

I don't have any idea what kind of tree this is. It is beautiful for a few days a year and a pain in the neck the rest of the time. This is one of those beautiful times.

Project 365 #96 Blueberry Cobbler

This photo is actually dedicated to Stacy at Stacy's Mundane 365. She did a post on her other blog about this yummy coffee treat and I just had to prove I had it.
