sunflowers

Beautiful pink blossoms tumbling over the fence!

Every year towards the end of summer, I like to go by this house and make pictures of their pretty yellower flowers....I think these are a type of sunflower?

They have this neat sign out front:

Made these photos the first week of November.

We came upon some beautiful zinnias! I just love zinnias

This was our first year to grow zinnias from seeds. Ours did great and next year I hope to grow some really really big ones like these! They are such a cheerful, happy flower!

Hope your week is going great! I am all done Christmas shopping since December 1!! Yay!---now on the the WRAPPING.....

Such beautiful flowers, and I LOVE the sign about community. WE need so much more of that. Already done Christmas shopping? I've barely started. Just can't get going...still don't quite have the energy I need to make it happen, but I BELIEVE God will help me do what I need to do in time. Just not going to be doing much this year, but God's blessings are so abundant regardless of my ability to shop and do for others. He will take care of it all I am sure. Wrapping...oh dear...that's the other reason I am not eager to shop. LOL. Wish I could hire someone to do it all for me! LOL Merry Christmas to you and your wonderful family. You know I love you all. And so does Lily Grace. xoxoxoxoxo0

Isn't it wonderful to live in a area that has two springs, the real one and the one at summers end. Beautiful flowers, thanks for sharing.

Looks like your blooms where you live stay around a lot longer then ours does. My blooms have been gone for a while. Love the yellow flowers.

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........................
