Every 10 minutes or so he has to exercise his lungs. Just after the operation he could only get to 1000. He is up to 3500 (and wanted me to document it) and doing just fine.
[10/52] Pokey and Gumby are not playing King of the Hill for their own enjoyment here. They are helping entertain the man after his little surgery. The Dr Pepper came in a close second in this department!
The surgery was a week ago yesterday and the man was recovering nicely until a couple of the staples quit doing their job. We saw the surgeon this afternoon. And now I get to perform wound care until the rest of the staples come out next week. Lucky me.

That? Was $100 at the post office (trunk not included). Stupid postage hikes. Remind me why I do e-business again?

Worshippers enjoy lingering and talking with one another after the worship service in a small chapel in the Rhondda Valley of South Wales. Carmel Chapel is part of the Associating Evangelical Churches of Wales. This little chapel has a surprising number of young singles, couples, and children: quite different from most aging congregations in South Wales.

I've not been to Nupend Wood for a few weeks since the bluebells had finished. I'd decided first to have a look at Common Hill reserve close-by. Common Hill is a small pasture of 2-3 acres just outside of Fownhope, Herefordshire. As I had hoped, lots of common spotted orchids were in bloom. The reserve is managed by Herefordshire nature trust as is Nupend wood, both lie along the River Wye trail. The trust lay corrugated sheet in parts of the meadows to give shelter for local reptiles and I always hope for a suprise when I lift one of these. To my delight the site at Common hill revealed a wonderful grass snake, and a slo worm. Both were close to one another and it occured to me that they must not pose a threat to one another and the grass snake dosn't consider the sloworm as a meal. Anyway that was my first grass snake and it was engaging to see his eyes focused on me and his tongue tasting the air. Wonderful.
My next visit was to Nupend wood to look for the Stinking Iris, hopfully in bloom. And yes, the Iris are blooming and I hope will be around for a few weeks. I walked up the lane to the pastures at Nupend, lots of birdboxes along the way in the surrouding woods. I wonder why there are so many types. Walking through the pastures my eyes were taken by the sight of Greater butterfly orchids in flower. I'd not expected any here and where I had hoped to find some, Joans Hill Farm, there were none, at least where I looked. Sometimes it's easy to miss things but once an eye focuses, more just pop up. Under the corrugated at Nupend were three or more slo worms. No grass snakes this time. I will post more images as time allows.

Final match between Juan Monaco and John Isner at the 2012 US Men's Clay Championships in Houston, TX.
This is a photograph from the second annual running of the Killyon National School 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held at Hill-of-Down, Clonard, Co. Meath, Ireland at 11:00 on Sunday 21st June 2015. The race is held as a fundraiser for the local primary school. Killyon is actually a parish rather than a town or village. With that the race started and finished at the well known Hill-of-Down where the Royal Canal and Dublin Sligo rail line run parallel and cross under the Kinnegad (Westmeath) to Trim (Meath) road. The 5KM route took in a final KM on the beautiful towpath of the Royal canal and finished outside Moran's Pub beside the Canal. Overall the race was very well organised with excellent stewarding and organisation. There was a great spread of refreshments afterwards and participants and families mingled and chatted beside the canal. The race took place on Father's Day and the Summer solstice making the day with the longest duration of day light. The race attracted very good local support from the surrounding areas with local runners, joggers and walkers in attendance.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the start and finish of the race at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157654448993629
Photographs from last year's (2014) race are also on our Flickr account at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157644887755947

If you just need these photographs for online usage then they can be used directly once you respect their Creative Commons license and provide a link back to our Flickr set if you use them. For offline usage and printing all of the photographs posted here on this Flickr set are available free, at no cost, at full image resolution.
Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.
In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph. Taking these photographs and preparing them for online posting takes a significant effort and time. We are not posting photographs to Flickr for commercial reasons.

I would like to contribute something for your photograph(s)?
Many people offer payment for our photographs. As stated above we do not charge for these photographs. We take these photographs as our contribution to the running community in Ireland. If you feel that the photograph(s) you request are good enough that you would consider paying for their purchase from other photographic providers or in other circumstances we would suggest that you can provide a donation to any of the great charities in Ireland who do work for Cancer Care or Cancer Research in Ireland.
Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
