CHANGING WORLD: AUGUST 2025

This is August 2025 Photos by Garry and Marilyn Armstrong Notes: If I am IN the picture, figure someone else (not me) took it. If Garry's name is the signature, HE took the picture. The ones in the restaurant and at the light show? Some talented passing stranger and thanks, whoever you are! A strange month … Continue reading CHANGING WORLD: AUGUST 2025

FLYING WITH FRIENDS

Photos by Garry Armstrong I know Garry is planning to write a post. I have no idea when. Garry takes retirement very seriously. Anything that seems like work? He'll get to it. Eventually.

ONE SMALL VACATION …

Share Your World 18th August I didn't want to come home. We were having fun. Sue and I went back to what we used to do, but we used to do it a lot earlier in the day. We were up most of the night. Playing Scrabble. The real game with little wooden tiles. The best … Continue reading ONE SMALL VACATION …

BACKYARD BIRDS AT PLAY

The birds were having a high old time. Eating lots of their favorite feed. Bumping around with other birds ("Hey, it's MY feeder!") or practicing freefalling from the feeder. Great game. You fold your wings closed and just fall off the feeder. Just see how long before you have to open you wings. Cool, eh?

UP IN THE AIR WE GO FLYING AGAIN – Marilyn Armstrong

A Photo a Week Challenge: Up In The Air I love pictures of anything in flight. This is a selection starting with 2012 to this month including my now omnipresent flying squirrels.

FINCHES AND TITMOUSES – Marilyn Armstrong

I did manage to take a bunch of pictures. The birds were enthusiastic. I had a headache, but sometimes, it's silly to not pick up the camera. The birds do what they do and they may never do that same thing again. The birds were very frisky today and I was not. But I'm very … Continue reading FINCHES AND TITMOUSES – Marilyn Armstrong

DECISIVE FLIGHT – Marilyn Armstrong

Decisive Flight Taking off from the green lawn of the Tuskeegee Flying museum, the small plane took off into the clouds and eventually, vanished in them.

WHAT DO I SEE? – Marilyn Armstrong

What Do I See? Number 10   It was at this exact moment that Ronald (formerly of McDonald's) realized he needed a LOT more balloons to get where he was going. Simultaneously, he realized he had no idea where he was going. Or why. A good, long think was definitely in order.
