We had a couple of hot air balloons fly over the house on Tuesday.

Sooner or later, Ollie will find a comfortable position on that box.

We had an interesting visitor to our water fountain this morning. Possibly a Red Shouldered Hawk.

Anybody want some apples? Our Apple tree is having a banner year. These are just those picked today. There's plenty more in the fridge.

Our cat Sylvester (Sly) was up to no good last night!

Our cat Curry probably did not like his medications any better than before. But we appreciated the nice customization by the nurses on the paper bag they came in.

We're just past the peak of our roses in bloom this season. The white rose bush in particular put on a good show. A few years back we made a last minute decision to move it from the backyard and replant it out front rather than have the landscapers haul it away.
