My Rare Visitor

Photo-Less

Hmm.. not letting me post photos. Not cool.

Not a whole lot to report here. It's still hot. Lots of different fires here and there. I hate that about Summer. No rain in I don't know how long. We need some rain.

Saw a hummingbird moth yesterday, I think I've seen two in the daylight in 8 years. I got some great photos, although blogger's not letting me share today.

The giant lens is out for repair, so no full moons, no bear for a bit. It's amazing how much use that lens gets.

I'm ready for Fall. Have I mentioned that?

My Blahhhhg.

Several times a week I'll stop and think, "I should put this on my blog", or "I should blog about this", and then I forget. I've lost that routine of pulling up this dusty blog and saying a few words or sharing photos.

I've been so slack on the photos. All I see as I scroll through my photos are Riley or the occasional bear in the yard. Those days of bugs and butterflies, sunsets and spiderwebs have wandered off. Not sure why.
I think some days I stop and tell myself, "you've taken/posted a million photos just like that, why more?". I need to get past that. I need that spark again.

We've had a really hot Summer for us. The inner Texan in me laughs when I say that, when anything above 80 here is yucky and I'm turning the AC on..but it is what it is. Anything above 80 here is hot. Period. No rain lately which of course increases our fire hazards. I've heard of a few but nothing major yet. Thank goodness for evenings in the 50's.

The bear have all gone up high to eat huckleberries. The fawns are scarce for some reason...could be the mountain lions. It's so dry and so dusty you really don't want to be outside until around 9pm or later.

Full moon tonight and my lens is out for repair. I'll just sit and watch it rise and enjoy the cool breeze.
