A tisket A tasket......

A BEAUTIFUL BASKET!

Spotted these at the local home center. Aren't they just gorgeous? The little petunias fluttering in the warm spring breezes and wow!--- that blue sky!

The beautiful beads and the little butterflies make them especially pretty.

I just fell in love with them.

So...........orange or purple? Which would YOU CHOOSE?

Orange would be my pick!
So how are you feeling? I've been thinking about you!

How lovely with all those colours against that blue, blue sky! Those wonderful beady baskets have escaped my attention, and I'll look when we go to pick out some pink geraniums or petunias for hanging on the old green garden swing support. It's not really "sittable" any more, because of a bad crack around one of the bolts, but it's still "hanging out there" so to speak, and I love it.

We got it at a yard sale just down the street several years ago and the man said that his late wife spent all of her last days enjoying her lawn and garden and birds from that swing. So we're honored and proud to have it as part of our own lawn now. There's just something about things that other people loved . . .

I wish you and your dear ones a Happy Fathers' Day and Happy Cusp of Summer!

I usually would choose purple but that orange just really speaks to me. Either way, one can't lose!

Tonight's Micromoon--we watched it rise over the Battery tonight, it was red and orange

Skywatchers in Central, Mountain and Pacific time zones will get a view of the full moon tonight (Sept. 13) at 11:32 p.m., 10:32 p.m. and 9:32 p.m., respectively, while East Coasters will see the moon at its fullest at 12:32 a.m. on the 14th. Regardless of time zone, the moon will appear just a bit dimmer than usual (eerie!), because it will be at apogee, or its farthest distance from Earth. That means that the moon will appear about 14% smaller and 30% dimmer than when it is at its closest point to Earth, which is known as perigee. (Livescience.com)

LETS END KILLER WHALE CAPTIVITY!!

Please research the captive killer orcas that the SEAWORLD franchise holds captive. It is animal cruelty at it's worst. Those killer whales need to be FREE, NOT HELD CAPTIVE BY us humans and forced to do 'tricks' for our amusement. (and to make SEAWORLD a lot of money. ) Please go watch BLACKFISH when y'all have time okay? also read "Killer at Seaworld". You will learn so much and I doubt if you ever pay entrance fees to enter SEAWORLD or any of it's affiliate parks again.........because you will learn what the money really goes for........PROFIT. Their profit...........the poor whales gain nothing. But life captivity. Sad lonely lives in bathtub size enclosures where they cant even interact with their own pods and offspring normally. Many of them are so sick and die very painful deaths.The 'breeding' program is a joke. They are not even allowed to procreate in a natural and normal manner. The whales that were caught in the wild were taken from their pods and their mothers in a very cruel and inhumane fashion---it is heartbreaking. It's awful sad. Please research and then let me know what you think, okay? Whales are magnificent creatures, I love them. I tell everybody it's okay to love them and to want to go see them......but please go to areas where you can view them in the wild either from the beaches or cliffs or from boats. Not from cement swimming pools where they are mis-treated, gawked at, and forced to 'perform'. God created them and intended for them to exist in the seas! They really need to remain free........................
