Last wildflowers of the season

I really enjoyed taking pictures of the wildflowers in my yard this year. I learned a lot about wildflowers just doing so. It will be sad to see them go, but sure won't miss the chigger bites! These are a few of my favorites from last Saturday.

Enjoy!

Sleepy Papi

Meet Sleepy Papi, Angela's (my daughter) new boyfriend. I almost wanted to keep him. He is so gentle and loveable. I got to pose him on my new chair prop that I bought in Kansas City at a church yard sale. He didn't like being on the chair all alone. We were making all kind of maneuvers to get him posed. We had a blast!

Enjoy!

Country Wildflowers

I didn't realize until being out in the country that the wildflowers come and go in stages; when one type stops blooming another type takes its place. So of course I had to capture these new flowers!

I was determined when taking these that I would not be chigger-bit. I sprayed on Off and then immediately took a shower afterwards, but somehow I still managed to get bit! It probably didn't help that on the last picture I was sprawled on the ground attempting to get the sunset in the background of the picture.

These are a few of my favorites from my excursion. Enjoy!

Country Living

I was getting bored with housework and unpacking, so I photographed some wildflowers in my yard. These are my favorites from this weekend and last weekend. The first picture here was taken from the deck overlooking our pond was before the storm came in Saturday night. Enjoy!

My Favorite Shore Excursion Pics

Due to time constraints, I won't be able to upload a slideshow for each shore excursion; however, I will upload my favorite pictures from the trip. Enjoy!!!

Mexican Cruise in the Sea of Cortez

As some of you know by now, I went on a 10-day Mexican cruise with Sis. Westberg and Marjorie. We had a blast! Due to a travel advisory, I did not take my professional camera, so the pics are with my point and shoot. Since there are so many pics, I will break the pics into our stops along the way, the first being in Puerto Vallarta.

I was the only one that went ashore on this excursion since it involved a 15-minute hike up the mountain then a tricky maneuver to get back to the boat!

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the captured moments at this small Mexican fishing village in Banderas Bay!
