A bee takes off from a Globe Thistle in my garden.
I love the look of these guys... the close-up/macro view makes them look so soft and cuddly .... you (almost) forget about the stinging part!
My first proper, full day off since Jonas was born. No work, no childcare, minimal housework - just me, a hot bath, a haircut and a little light retail therapy.
Utter bliss.
Members assigned to the 81st Civil Affairs Battalion spent time with their families and friends as bags were loaded, IDs swiped and hugs issued prior to the start of a scheduled 9 month deployment Dec. 15. Just 14 months in existence, the 81st CA Bn would be the first within civil affairs to deploy as a complete battalion. (Photo by Army Staff Sgt.

Well over 30 degrees this evening in Glendale, so the open air restaurants had their water misters spraying and there were plenty of kids enjoying the fountains. Heading off to Colorado tomorrow for the altitude portion of the trip.

A beautiful Prothonotary Warbler, male.
"The Prothonotary Warbler is one of only two warbler species that nest in cavities... Prothonotary Warblers place their nests in low cavities such as old Downy Woodpecker holes. Bald cypress, willows, and sweet gum are regular trees used for nesting and cavities tend to be in trees located near or over standing water. These warblers sometimes use bird boxes, gourds, and cypress knees for nesting." - www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Prothonotary_Warbler/lifehistory
Went for a quad ride and mostly it was in the rain. Parts were a little bit scary just because the trail was slick, and we have good tires on the quad. Just trying to dry off and keep warm after the ride.

My buddy taking the bike off the path to do some exploring while wearing his Vibram Five Fingers KSO's. They gripped the rocks well, even after running through water.

January 29th 2009 -- Ostrander Bowl, Yosemite National Park, California, USA -- Skiers at the top of the Ostrander Bowl regearing and pulling of skins for the ride back down. I caught up to these 4 at the top of the bowl after a pause in the middle to shoot another group of skiers headed down. There was something tableau like about the the way they were all lined up beneath the headwall as the sunbeams tracked across the snow behind them. Regearing at the top, putting on the gortex, peeling the skins off, grabbing a quick bite of food and a sip of water is the hidden moment of meditation that turns the corner between the effort of climbing the mountain and the grace of skiing down it.

Because I only had one full day in New York I took back to back Hop On Hop Off Buses. Some of the images are not very good as the bus would go over bumps etc,.I have kept them in as memorises of the day. I only got off the bus once so most of the photos were taken as we were travelling along. Sadly I just didn't have time to have a good walk around.
I woke to a lovely sunny day and not too cold with around 16c. As the day went on it clouded over a bit and cooled down. November 7, 2018 USA.
