Hanging out at Mitch and Katie's on Friday, eating s'mores, after dinner at Rancho Grande:
And at the cabin celebrating the 4th with my side of the family:
Maddie loved watching Chris set off smoke balls,
and going in the lake with me.
One of the strangest, and coolest, things that happened on the 4th was that several dragonflies decided to land on me at the same time and molt:
The picture above was taken shortly after this dragonfly had molted.And here's a shot after its wings had expanded and were drying out:
Ada spent most of the day sleeping on whoever would hold her.
And here she is hanging out with Grandpa:
Look for my Summer Reading, Part II post later today.
"Smoke balls" sounds somewhat less dignified than "smoke bombs".
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome 4th weekend. The dragonfly is so very amazing. And the smoke bombs / balls, too.
ReplyDeleteI didn't see this post til today! You've been writing like a maniac. I love it. Who is that man feeding another man at your picnic table?? eileen
ReplyDeleteThat would be my Uncle Jr. and the person he is "feeding" is my cousin Shane. Jr was pointing to some people that were down the road though I did get a chuckle as it does look like he is feeding him. I definitely need to send this picture to Shane. Nice shot!
