Oh dear Deer in the yard!!!!!

This morning I looked out in the yard and this is what I found. We live on five acres and there is a deer run across the front of our property that goes into the raven. This is the big daddy buck. He is keeping watch over his herd.
Look baby is getting a drink.

Good Grief it is a whole herd.



Oh just like Bambi.


Nothing like wildlife to start your day right.

Strange things in Florida

This spider was over six inches long. Don't you wonder how I got this picture. You could here me screaming for miles around.

Huge insects down here.


Cigar stores are abundant in Ybor City.




This grasshopper is changing its skin.



There are some very large birds at the Gulf. I think it might be a pterodactyl.

Things that go......KA-BOOM

Ka-boom a tree fell on our motor home, Jeep, storage shed, trailer, and fence. Then my external hardrive with all my pictures and photoshop things went ka-boom. Lost everything.



Of course the fourth of July gives us a reason to celebrate ka-boom.


I was so excited that I finally learned how to use the slow shutter speed to capture the fireworks.

I used my new long lens and set up on a tripod.

We went to Lake City where they were celebrating the Fourth as well as their 150th anniversary.






Look very closely in the center. What do you see? Is it Michael Jackson?
Quick let me put this on ebay.







This one says it all. Happy Birthday America. Thanks to all our service men and women who are on foreign soil. This is a ka-boom celebration for you.

Charm Swap Cloth Paper Scissors

LOOK at these beautiful charms I recieved in the mail.


I was so excited when the magazine Cloth Paper Scissors announced a charm swap. All you had to do was to make 10 charms and send them in and then you would get 10 different charms in return from other artists.
