June 2014 Long Summer Days

Sunset at Old Whitney

Father's Day 2014. I am so glad I got a few photos of them.

This cloud was on the opposite side of the sunset. I think it is gorgeous

Some coneflowers that are at Romare Bearden Park

Gotta love What-A-Burger. Grabbed this shot after the Art Walk

All the flowers I have in the yard and the hummer perched on some dead roses -haha

Zinnias are one of my favorites

Oakboro Cruise-in

Alstroemeria is another favorite flower

These zinnias came from a 2005 seed pack.  They came up better than some new ones I bought.

Love the little hummers

I think this is the first time in 10 years I have seen a hummingbird at this plant

May 2014- Celebrate Good Times

We have so much to celebrate in May. My birthday, graduation, Mother's Day, Shana's birthday,  Dan's birthday, and my mother-in-law's birthday.  It's a celebration!


Finally on May 26th, the hummingbirds started coming back around. I am so glad.

Oakboro Cruise-in - we went a little later than we usually do and I am glad. The clouds looked nice so it made a nice background.

Well I finally got to go to Lazy 5 ranch, wow, I loved it. Of course the peacocks were my favorite and I have wanted to take a photo of one with his feathers spread forever. And the baby Giraffe was adorable.

I am probably the only person that takes photos of other things while at Lazy 5 - lol

The old Gladstone Academy, I think they are considering turning it into a music hall

For my birthday we went to Tiger World so I could see the peacocks. I also got to see this beautiful Owl

 I thought the sky looked nice while on my way home from Concord.

 Rode around a little and saw this nice barn and pond. Looks perfect.

This pot of flowers are starting to grow- yay!

I love wildflower fields, the red one I took May 3. The yellow one was taken at the end of April
