Hubby and I had time together! We chose to ignore the chores, pack up the canoe and head for the river.
It was a great choice!
Could it be any calmer?
I put the paddle down, and simply drank it all in. It felt great to relax in the sunshine!
A Great Blue Heron was fishing on the sandbar.
Why did I leave the big camera home???

Just for the fun of it…
the difference between the raccoon’s shoe size and my barn cat’s shoe size.
The kitty paw prints are in the upper left corner. The rest belong to the raccoon.
Seeing the tracks helps get a perspective on the animal’s size.

We meet every fall, but I am always surprised when we meet. This time of year, I know to look around before I decide to catch some Vitamin D and do some yard work.
I know it. But I don’t always do it.
On this day, I had finished taking photos of a sewing project, and thought that I might as well do a little yard work while I was outside anyway.
That’s when I noticed her.
I keep a cautious eye, but I’m not worried. We’ve met before. But this time, I have my camera handy.
What is she interested in?
The pears aren’t ripe yet, but she likes them just the way they are.
