Corvus Plays With Pinecones

As I sort through the couple hundred pictures I took in Savannah and Sapelo, I figured I’d throw out a video I took in my parents’ back yard since it’s been a while!  I don’t know why I buy my dogs toys.  They would much rather play with logs or, as you can see, pine cones.

Flowers!

Image
In an attempt to usher in spring and as a follow-up to my last post, I will start posting some of my numerous flower pictures.  Between trips with Erika to Longwood Gardens , walks at the Arboretum , and other random pictures from the game lands, Savannah, etc. I have a TON of flower pictures.  We'll get started in a sec. I've taken this week off from running.  For some reason these last two or so weeks my body has been completely rebelling against everything-extreme fatigue, aching everywhere.  I try to run, work out, and can't make my body do what I want it to.  Such a frustrating feeling.  A full blood panel shows only that my thyroid is hypo again.  Okay, fine, but that isn't the cause of this.  I think I've physically caught up with where I am emotionally.  So hopefully a week off will help and then starting again slowly.  Sigh. I'm eager to get started again as I keep getting recruited by the Nittany Valley Hash House Harriers.  I'm not totally sur

Sapelo Island, Part I

     I have been here before,           But when or how I cannot tell:      I know the grass beyond the door,           The sweet keen smell, The sighing sound, the lights around the shore. ~ Sudden Light, Dante Gabriel Rosetti I don’t know what it is about the Georgia coast that lures me in.  I have no childhood attachment.  I’ve visited other beaches and coastlines in various locations with no connection.  But there is something about this place that is peaceful, comfortable, familiar…  I’ve never been to Sapelo Island before.  Our visits typically include Savannah and some time on Tybee, the neighboring barrier island.  In the spirit of something different, we chose to visit Sapelo this year.  Sapelo is a small barrier island owned almost entirely by the state of Georgia and accessible only by ferry.  Commercially, the University of Georgia Marine Institute takes up much of the south end of the island.  We avoided most of that.  The only full-time residents liv

Out And About & Kid Art

Image
I had hoped today to get out and get some great pictures.  It didn’t happen.  We went out for Mexican this evening, which is an absolute must when in the south.  I may have gorged myself on tortilla chips and salsa.  I may have had a margarita.  Or two.  And I may have rendered myself completely useless during the prime evening photography hours.  I haven’t had a margarita or restaurant chips and salsa in over a year…(American) Mexican doesn’t fit into a healthy lifestyle and I very much enjoyed indulging tonight.  It was delicious! So instead I will be posting some random snapshots from various places we visited today, some amazing kid art from the local Sheriff’s Office, and a couple of night shots taken after I recovered from dinner! I hate sitting inside despite the fact that it’s in the mid-90s so I thought it would be fun to combine some letterboxing with a visit to a local natural area.  It took me forever to get this guy:   I decided to play ar
