No Picture to Post

My computer is being repaired but I've still been taking pictures and will post them as soon as I get my computer back.

Did you see the moon tonight?  So beautiful!  I took a bunch of photos of it.

I'm not sure what this is growing in front of my irises.

144: Spider Web

Saw this in between the slats of the back stairs as I was on my way to school this morning.  I put my stuff down, got my camera out, and took a picture.

143: Lupines

On our way home from camp I got my husband to stop so I could take some pictures of this field of lupines.

142: Nay's 1955 Harley

My son bought an old Harley and my husband spent the winter doing it over for him.  This is an original color for that year called True Blue.  Nathan's girlfriend, Danielle, enjoyed trying it out.  You can see my proud husband in the background.

141: Afternoon Moon

After school I went home to pack a few things for camp then got in my car for the two-and-a-half-hour ride, put my seatbelt on, looked up and there was this pretty half moon winking at me.  So, I unbelted, got my camera out, changed to my zoom lens, got out of the car, and took this picture.

Once I got to camp, I was pooped and never took another photo so this is it for yesterday.  I'm glad I took the time to take this one!

I think that's what this is, anyway.  It's on my rose bush leftover from last year.

134: Lady Slipper

This lady is growing wild behind our across-the-street neighbor's shed at the campground.  They are quite rare.
Visit Scenic Sunday for lots of other beauty.

133: A Clump of Blurry Bluettes

I don't know why I like this picture but I do.  See the bubbles in the background? And the over-exposure on the right?  And the blur in the foreground?  And look at those couple of flowers sticking up.  They just look so delicate and innocent!

I saw these when I was out for my walk tonight so put my camera on the ground to take it in close-up mode.

132: Berlin, NH

I took this when I was on my walk tonight.  I was at the top of Sixth Avenue.  This is looking toward the East Side. 
The church is now Good Shepherd Parish but was St. Anne's for years before the parishes merged. 
The smoke stack is leftover from the paper mill that closed a few years ago.  Everything else was torn down but it is hoped that a biomass company will come in and use it.
I love how the hillsides are beginning to turn green!

131: White Birches

I took a walk after school through the Smith Hydro Peninsula Park.  The sun was out and it was in the 50s.  Perfect for a brisk stroll.

130: Funeral Rose

This rose is part of a dried flower wreath from my dad's funeral.  He died 13 years ago today.

124: Tulip

After it stopped raining this evening, I took my camera for a walk and saw these beautiful tulips.  I took lots of other pictures, too, and will post some of them on my other blog, Linda's Stuff.

Saw these in the grass when I was mowing the lawn this evening.  I'm not sure what they are.

122: Yellow Flowers

I spied these on my way back from the beach.  There were tons of them growing on the bank of a stream.
