Some pics from our annual pilgrimage to the LA Fair.

I wish I could be here at night to see if they show anything on that screen.

A collage inside the art museum.

And it looks like they've made a major discovery at the outdoor model train layout.

Cool! The Mother Road, Route 66! And Winslow, Arizona-- a nice place to stand on the corner, from what I hear.

Looks like they must. Coincidentally, they've got a Burt Reynolds movie on the bill. Adios, Burt. :bye:

This isn't the best shot, but it's kind of pretty. It's a White-tail deer using the walnut tree to hide from Echo (the horse):

Very pretty, and that's a nice shot-- the deer, the woods, the giant tree, dandelions or something in the foreground. Is that a dead branch dangling in the giant tree?

And here are some new pictures from emma:

A picture of the Moon, looking almost like a painting.

Image

I tried to zoom in as much as I could.

And here's another selfie of emma, wearing her pearl necklace with her new cerise shirt.

Thank you, it is. :) The horses can literally disappear into the trees. And I should know, I have spent many a day/night trying to find one of them, and it's only 8 acres of pasture! :lol:

Thank you. Nope, no dandelions, just light filtering through the trees and catching the tips of weeds.
Yep. I think it's the only dead branch at the moment. It's an old tree, it's had many dead branches over the years. :) When the day comes that it's time to cut it down (if I am still alive), I plan to have several cuts from the trunk to make tables out of them, even if it's hollow inside. :yes: I've been getting monthly pictures taken of it so I can make a calendar for my siblings. In fact, one of my favorites is Blue Twilight Tree, but others on deviantArt preferred Twilight Tree. They liked the sunset colors, I like the blues. :D

Hi emma. :hello: Lookin good. :yes: Nice shot of the moon over the mountains, with the yard and trees in front. I like that. :yes:

^^ That one has a nice peaceful feeling to it.

emma sent me a couple of pictures of trees with hummingbirds that I'll try to post later-- or probably tomorrow, since I'm running a bit late tonight.

It came out really good, considering how dark it was.
