I Like Thursday: Starting to Settle

One of my biggest likes this week is that I actually have some nice photos.  You know, something other than piles of boxes. 

I like the curio cabinet that came with the house.  Amid the chaos around the house, it makes me so happy to see my treasures all on display.



The side panels are clear so I can admire the tea cups as I walk by.

I am grateful to have my license renewed before it expired.  I didn't have all the documentation for a RealID (my renewed passport has not returned yet).  But we were able to walk in and walk out of AAA in 20 minutes, no waiting, for both of our licenses.  How totally awesome is that??

I really enjoyed this Contra Dance Kaleidoscope video.  I've never seen a contra dance shot directly overhead.  Kaleidoscope is a good word to describe how it looks.

I liked the big sky in Rehoboth.  Well, I'm loving the big sky just south of us.  I snapped these photos on the way back from my sister's house.  (Oh, and that she's only 20 minutes away?  Priceless!)  This was looking north east...

and this was south west:

This section is flat, but driving around is a lot of up and down.  Which for some reason took me by surprise.  Which is pretty silly, given that you can see the hills.  Duh.

Game Day!  It was just cool enough for a walk in the woods.  The cattails brought back memories of the park near my childhood home.  There was a massive clump of cattails near the edge of the pond.  I remember all the red wing blackbirds in them.

Speaking of birds, there are so many new bird songs I hear from my office window.  I think I've memorized my limit this year, but I know I have plenty more to learn next year.


I liked this tiny frog.  Can you see him?  He was slightly larger than my thumbnail.  We came across several of them during our walk.

Most evenings our lawn is visited by a ton of dragonflies.  If you look carefully, you can see them dancing around.  A local contra dancer calls it the Festival of Dragonflies.  It is really neat to watch in person.

Every box that should be open has been opened.  I shall actually start working on my sister's quilt again this weekend.  There's still more chaos than I'd like right now, but it hasn't been one thing after another this week.  Wonderful!

Thanks for stopping by.  There's more good things happening over at Not Afraid of Color's I Like Thursday.
