One lone cloud in the sky. 1 Kings 18:44

Reminds me of a cloud the size of a man'a hand. Better get your chariot ready, Run!

Retro McDonald’s lunch.

Reminds me of my mom and dad's eating out in the good ole days.

Revision Stage

Percy makes an excellent editor!

Cruising our old stomping grounds...

I remember when I used to go four-wheeling in the woods that are now the Greene.

I think he gets it...!

My 14 year old son was doodling while I worked today… I look over to see THIS when he proclaimed, "I'm done!" The only question he asked was to confirm he was spelling vision correctly…

You have to zoom in to really see the detail. He nailed it, all off the top of his head.

Just out cruising the neighborhood

Check out that 27,000 square foot house with the huge pond...

My nephews/niece and their trick photography!

In other words, photography of their tricks. :)

They've worked hard to be able to perform them; even harder to capture them on film.

Cool perspective, good memories

Isaac set up this pic of my mom and dad's class rings. Pretty cool! He's got quite the creative eye.

We got hit again...!

Luckily, my dad had a spare mailbox, in the barn.  I had pounded the current one back into shape a few times, already.  I figured it was time for a new one.

The boys and I were having a throw off, last night

Highest point total, of each set of throws, wins each round. Good times.

There's a cat on my boots!

Festival season!

A good way to spend lunch, today! Looking forward to it, after church.

Andy might be as good of a cat whisperer as I am?

Notice that Percy is content to be an iPad stand...!

This is an impressive rock tower, that Isaac made, a few weeks back!

Playing with a rhombic antenna, at the VOA park, today.

Andy decided he wanted to try violin, for his fine art credit, this year.

So, off to Hauer Music we went.

These turkeys are pretty curious...

The upper right one, walked right up to me, as I was getting out of my car, in the garage. He was making noise and his buddy (upper left) came to check it out, but got misdirected and ended up on the porch...

Below, Andy is able to get them to come over by imitating their call... He's a turkey whisperer too, I guess...!

Julie finished it!

Her first attempt at the art of lace making... Tatting.

Somebody looks like she had a happy birthday, this week!!!

Emily loves animals of all kinds. She really enjoyed having the dog along on her birthday horseback ride!

Imagine my surprise...

I am sitting at my office desk. I catch something, out of the corner of my eye, in the reflection of my monitor. I look up to see that Percy is sneaking up to try and steal my breath!!! Haha! He's standing on my office work bench with his feet propped on the back of my chair.

Johnny sporting a 30 year old hand-me-down... :)

Not the most comfortable way to watch TV...

Julie's latest craft attempts!

Looks like she's figured out tatting to me!

Would you believer Julie happily received this gift!?

One of the larger jumping spiders I've ever seen. He's about half an inch long. The last one, we found, hatched a whole fleet of babies!

These are the things that go bump in the night...!

Or rather you bump into, in the night... Andy almost walked right into this little beasty while checking the mail!

Andy made a quick sketch of his teacher. Not too bad of a likeness...
