Phat Strap

My new camera strap from Phat Strap (www.phatstraps.com) arrived a few weeks ago. I absolutely love it, with the exception of the color I picked for the inside fabric. I knew I should have gone with black!

Dutch Oven Dinner

Our out-of-town company went home today and we decided to do a little cooking in the backyard.

Evening Primrose

The Yucca is Blooming!

Can you believe it?? They're gorgeous!

The evening primrose is blooming, but you have to catch it at the right moment. There were blooms yesterday evening. Tonight, there were wilted blossoms and more buds.

The bee balm looks amazing.

And aren't these going to be pretty? They're Alaska Shasta Daisies.

Cherries & Tank

Our neighbor's cherry tree.

And our neighbor's dog, Tank.

Purple Flowers

In honor of my friend, LM, who had surgery today. Purple is her favorite color.

Mr. DeMille

I'm ready for my close-up.
