Highlanders

 Seems like there is always a new craze. A few years back, it was Gnomes. And now it is Highland Cows!! They are everywhere! On clothes, paintings, kitchen things, cushions, etc. Have you seen them? Do you like them? Here are just a few I have seen in stores.

In The Pink

 My birthday was this weekend. On Friday we had to call 911 for an ambulance for me. Back home the next day, Phil was not well and I had to call 911 for him!!! We are both back home and hopefully in the pink now.


After all of this, you can imagine what a hopeful sign was seeing these pink trees today! The first ones I have seen in bloom!!

The Answer

 Here is the answer to what my net photo really is. It's a backyard sports practice net. I was so glad that most of you did not know what it is, just like me!!


It is used for pitching practice, fielding drills, etc.

The dome shape keeps it stable and gives a big catching surface.

Mystery Net

 A few blocks away, we happened to pass this in front of a house. I honestly had no idea what it is, but I bet you do. Let's see if there are any others who are as clueless as I am. The answer on my next post.

Day Of Mass Confusion

 Just a reminder to set your clocks forward one hour this Saturday. I dove into my photo snap files for some timely shots.








Oh great, another chance to misplace an entire hour.

Ah yes, the international day of mass confusion.

Two Birthdays

 Last week, we had two birthdays on the same day! Our granddaughter Jazz and her mom. Jazz loves building things and wants to be an architect. So we usually get her Legos and puzzles. They are too hard for me! These ones were so cute!




While she was building, we watched some more of the movie Cruella with Emma Stone. One of both her and my favorite movies. I have seen it at least three times.


Our daughter-in-law Melissa. She got a moka pot coffee maker and gift card to Amazon.


Father & son on the computer.


Anne Marie was home from college, too!


Here we are.


Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

The Answer

 I really don't have to post the tire cover answer, because all of you knew!! I wonder how long it would have taken me to figure it out if I had not researched it? And you know those pictures that have something hidden behind them? If you squint and stare you are supposed to see it. Not me. Not ever! But I digress. Three cheers for the beautiful sea turtle!
