last year around this time we went out to Falcon Lake for some camping fun…

I picked up the cutest magnetic screen protectors, shaped like butterflies… I put the three of them on the patio screen door…

recently I caught this picture of an actual butterfly on the screen…

wondered if it was having a visit with its magnet friends, lol…

watch…

the other evening there was a thunderstorm…

afterwards I took this photo out the front door… hadn’t been much sun for most of the day, so it was great to see this…

I was on the watch for a rainbow because the sky just had that look about it…

and then, this…

it was gorgeous and reminded me of the many rainbows we saw when we were on Maui… I think we saw at least one every day and one day we saw five…

sunning…

spent some time out in the garden watching for the baby fish which I spotted a few days ago… I saw at least two sizes, so am eager to see how many there are…

they move really quickly, so the chances of getting any shots of them is slim…

but I did get a few pictures of the rest of the fish sunning themselves…

I’ve also been taking photos daily of the water lily bud as it slowly grows toward the surface of the pond…

really hoping I get to see it bloom…

rather thrilled when I realized that my container filled with extra soil was growing morning glories;-)…

this pot was under the deck and wasn’t getting any water, so they have really toughed it out…

I pulled it out and gave it some water… might even move it up onto the deck so it gets more sunlight…

not sure if they will end up blooming, but I am hopeful…

just a couple of days ago I had a memory on Facebook showing one of my previous year’s blooms…
