Happy National Blueberry Pancake Day! What better way to start off your morning!
And don't bother ordering blueberry pancakes from this Crackdown Cafe! 
Sometimes, when you find yourself at the end of your rope, just let go!
This is from every school cafeteria and picnic and birthday party! If you think about it for a second, you can still taste the wooden spoon!
It is illegal in the United States to keep an owl as a pet. I'll bet you never wondered!
For whatever reason, we are having truly spectacular sunrises and sunsets around here these days. This one will make a fine wallpaper.
The same view, at the same time, on the same day of every month for one year. 
This is a quilt made by a Mennonite woman in the first half of the 20th Century. The pattern is called "Sawtoothed Bars." It's in the collection of the Smithsonian Institution ("America's Attic").
The little picture of a football next to the Cowboys' score of 9 indicates that they have the ball, not that it did them much good. But many people look at that on their screen and wonder how a team can score negative 9 points. It's Fox, after all.
Nature photography allows us to see inside the animal kingdom. All of these bird faces are telling us they wish they were parakeets, living inside where it's warm and dry.

Love the rope swing! There was one on a hill by Loch Raven Reservoir (back behind Seminary Rd. Cut through the Kordish’s or the Siecks’ yards). Swinging out over the water and then dropping into the reservoir brought such a feeling of freedom and joy!
