I don’t know why we humans force Halloween costumes on our pets. Do any pets REALLY enjoy getting dressed up? Well, maybe those chihuahuas on Beverly Hills Chihuahuas enjoy it, hmmm… For sure, our Paco has never been too thrilled about Halloween dress-up. But, dang, he sure looks cute! 😉
Our ten-year-old lab retriever, Paco, who just had his toe amputated last Friday. 😦 
Trillium…always my first official sign of spring on the Olympic Peninsula 🙂
Bleeding hearts
The trails behind our house…I love our outdoor playground!
Isn’t that big stump awesome?!
Red flowering currant
Paco loves it when White Creek is flowing 🙂
White Creek in the springtime
Looking up into our forest canopy. Do you see the heart?
Looking for the heart through the trees 🙂
Me crossing White Creek 🙂
Young stinging nettles…we eat these around here. Boil ’em, steam ’em, saute’ ’em, the nettles dissolve and you end up with a tasty green rich with iron. Just make sure to harvest them with thick gloves!!
A dandelion globe…not sure if that’s what it’s called but, that’s what I see! 😉
Here’s a sequence of three pics trying this new wordpress gallery “circle” feature for the first time…it looks kind’ve cool! I just realized when you use the gallery feature, the camera properties are listed when you click on each photo, which I appreciate!
So, this is my husband “trying” to cartwheel with my daughter. LOL Actually, he did a decent job! Grownups: if you haven’t cartwheeled in awhile, you should try it. It’s fun but, harder than it looks! 🙂
