Bryce Canyon Sunrise.....Utah, 2009 View On Black
This scene reminded me of a song that the Zac Brown Band sings, called Toes....I especially like the phrase in the chorus, "life is good today"....a reminder for all of us that if we are fortunate enough to wake up each morning, then it really is a "good" day, and we should all take advantage of what life has to offer.
Have a wonderful weekend.....will catch up with all my contacts & friends throughout the weekend.....busy with Christmas preparations!!!! Thanks for your visit & comments :-)

I had a wonderful time walking around the city of Orillia this past Friday. All the strangers that I encountered on the street were super friendly and patient when I was taking photos (waiting for me to get my shot before walking past, for example). It’s a great feeling when the sun is shining and you feel inspired and connected to those around you. #lifeisgood
this one is for cheffalo, and anyone else who doesn't care much for the puppy inundation that is about to happen in my photostream. ;)
but no apologies, as i've been wanting this lil furball for over a year now, so it is a dream come true to finally have her here!

Don't underestimate God.He can do the unthinkable,the unreachable and even the unbelievable.Even in your life.Whatever is in your life right now that you feel is impossible,turn it over to God.
Have a little faith.I mean He did put the pond above the trees didn't he.

To get an idea of just how bouncy tubing is, feel free to check out the video I also downloaded. I feel fortunate to have gotten a few good photos. A lot of them turned out blurry, since I was also bouncing around in the boat.
Summer is back again.
It's not the warm sun or the gentle breeze that tells me this. It's not the blueberries or ice cream, although they both feed my spirit.
It is the beauty of her feathers and the language of her heart that defines summer in Maine on Long Lake.
It is the Loon. I wake to her gentle gliding along the lake in front of my dock and I go to sleep to the sound of her desparate cries.
Her beauty fills me with joy on a summer's day and her cries at night remind me that each of us has a soul that needs tending.
The common Loon is what makes me know that life is real, that Maine is sweet and that love is forever. And that summer comes again.
She is back and I welcome her.
Zak is one of these rare people that manage to be an open-hearted, generous and gentle person, taking real interest in people's lives, and at the same time be an excellent professional and master in photography. I am proud and happy to be called his friend. A most brillant source of learning can be found at his photostream, always a pleasure to the eyes.

One way I check for Spring is to go to the local park and look for cherry blossoms… I found some this morning : )

Allen's Hummingbird & Cherry Blossoms
In early spring, a narrow strip of scrub and chaparral along the Pacific Coast starts buzzing with the sights and sounds of the coppery and green Allen's Hummingbird. Males flash their brilliant reddish orange throat and put on an elaborate show for the females, swinging in pendulous arcs before climbing high into the sky and diving back down with a sharp squeal made by their tails. These early migrants mostly spend the winter in Mexico, but some stay in southern California year-round.
Male and female Allen's Hummingbirds use different habitats during the breeding season. The male sets up a territory overseeing open areas of coastal scrub or chaparral, where he perches conspicuously on exposed branches. The female visits these areas, but after mating she heads into thickets or forests to build a nest and raise the young.
The Allen's Hummingbird is a remarkably early migrant compared with most North American birds. Northbound birds may depart their wintering grounds as early as December, arriving on their breeding grounds as early as January when winter rains produce an abundance of flowers.
Like other birds, Allen's Hummingbirds use their feet to help control their body temperature. When it's cold outside they tuck their feet up against their bellies while flying, but when temperatures soar, they let their feet dangle to cool down.
The oldest recorded Allen's Hummingbird was at least 5 years 11 months old when she was captured and rereleased in California during banding operations in 2009. She had been banded in the same state in 2004.

This beauty was captured after a 10 hour sail in the vacinity of one of Blackbeard's stomping grounds. Evidently it's a charter sailboat that hails out of Silver lake in Ocracoke.
