I took these from my back yard this morning.
My main purpose was to sneak out of the house and take pictures of something, anything. I'm waiting for bypass surgery (hopefully this week) and have been confined to the house for two weeks now. My secondary purpose was to get the first half of before and after pictures of the ponds. We are under a flood watch because of heavy rain we were told would be coming today. We got some but not really that much.
I 'm sure that here in East Texas we aren't in the worst shape of any area of North America but it hasn't been fun. We have had 20 days of 100+ degree weather since the last week of June and almost no rain until the last few days. There have been enough small showers that there is once again a little green in the grass.
The pond on the right is down about 4 1/2 to 5 feet. Yes, that is (or was) a pond in the second picture.
The plowed area in the foreground is a fire break my father has plowed around our houses.

Really nice country there in Texas! Looks very calming and serene. Best wishes for a successful bypass,Gleep! They have come to be extremely effective! A quick recovery to you and best wishes, too!

Miscellaneous stuff I shot a little over a week ago. I made a loop through Idaho on the way to a wedding in Medora, North Dakota. The first is a small stream along the Sawtooth Byway. The second is the Snake River Canyon overlook just west of the Perrine Coulee Bridge. Third is Shoshone Falls in Twin Falls Idaho. It was unusual to have any water over the falls in August. Most is diverted for irrigation. The next three are a few waterfalls in Thousand Spring State Park. I took a lot of images. Most were AEB because of the high contrast skies. I did not have the luxury of waiting for the late afternoon colors. More to come in the future weeks/month.

Thank you JJ. I am just now getting to my emails, and FB messages. I was hoping to ignore it, but guess I can't. I am counting backwards no matter what the candles say. I'm claiming 58 instead and entering childhood #3 or 4 (my grandson took these with my camera)


Happy Birthday Pat!

A little black kitten followed Sarah's kids home from a walk the other day and of course, the "cat whisperer" is delighted!


I love this!

A little late with these but I've been quite occupied today. The hummers are tanking up for the trip south and today the Robin monopolized the bird bath.


Nice. I love watching them play in the water
