Have a great weekend!

I can think of few things more exasperating than a massive, well-timed hard drive failure. It’s been two weeks since I had fried “Apple” for Saturday breakfast. Things are still not back to normal, but should be very soon.
I wish I could be on the beach with no worries during this forced time-out. Still, it’s allowing me to organize, plan our summer, and enjoy the little things. I even rearranged some furniture! I have one week left, then I’ll have quite a flurry of catch-up — then I’m back in business. Hopefully, with more frequent posts!
I took this last year. I’d been keeping my eye out for a fun shot of this beautiful ferris wheel. There we were, high up in the cable cars, just past sunset…
Alan had been ready to give this kid a haircut for a while, but I had a hard time saying goodbye to the original. You know, that jagged look of newborn hair? It’s too cute. You can’t get that back.
I know, I can’t stop the tide. Here’s the only way I could keep it …
How long does it take for little Eastern Pheobes to fledge? I have no idea, but I’d assume a month? More? So, imagine my shock when I crept near the nest this morning to check on them (cozied up and way too big for their home) and ALL FIVE flew off in a frenzy around my face! The last one out was pretty shaky. I cannot believe I gave them the push out of that nest. Flanneryis going to be mad. at. me. Because I didn’t have my camera.
Here they are 2 days ago. Yes, look at them. I shouldn't have been surprised.
The kids played ball until dark yesterday. Alan and I joined them for an inning or two. Here’s my baby on his way to join the fun, which is a big deal to him. I’m sure he thinks he’s capable enough and why shouldn’t he join? He’s been patiently waiting for his chance to be on the big boy team. I didn’t get pictures of him running around the bases, underfoot, with a bat AND ball in hand… happy as a clam!
I took this last year. Progress, indeed!
